Any deviation in the process shall be brought to the knowledge of the QA In charge

and prior approval of the QA In charge should be taken.

Critical parameters like temperature, Relative Humidity, and pressure differences

should be checked and monitored during all manufacturing stages.

In-process controls should be carried out throughout manufacturing operations

as per relevant BPR and relevant current version SOPs.

Ensure that all materials like raw materials, in-process materials, and finished products

should be placed in respective areas with the proper status labels.

Attach additional sheets wherever required.

Attach system-generated data recording sheets wherever applicable.

Gowning should be as per the current version SOP while processing.

Masks and hand gloves should be used during processing.

Check for line clearance, cleanliness of the area, and equipment.

Calibrated weighing scales shall be used while processing.

Attach printouts wherever applicable.

Avoid direct product contact.

In the checklist write OK if complies, not OK if not comply, and write

NA if the step is not applicable.

Now Start and Operate the Automatic Rotary Vial Washer machine as per respective

equipment SOP and align the vial with the machine inlet, and start the washing activity.

Now Collect the 06 vials to perform Clarity test, add WFI in vial up to neck and check the

clarity as per point no. 8.5 and record the observation in respected column, (if any rejections

found during the washing Re-Wash the vial and check the clarity, if clarity found OK

continue the process).

After washing, vial shall be go for the sterilization and Depyrogenation process in the tunnel.

PACKING PROCESS

Instructions:

All equipment and accessories required for use should be cleaned as per the

current approved Standard Operating Procedure.

All equipment must be properly guarded and earthed.

Ensure that all the dispensed packing materials are checked for the correct identity

on the label and also the  Weight prior to use.

The temperature and Relative humidity in the packing area should be maintained.

Necessary preventive measures should be taken to avoid cross-contamination of other products.

Ear plugs/muffs must be worn during working in high-noise areas/operations.

All packing operations must be carried out under the supervision of Competent Technical Staff.

All non-utilizable rejects must be recorded and destroyed as per the current

Standard Operating Procedure.

Line clearance Check List

  • Cleaning of weighing balance.
  • Ensure that previous batch material is traced from the Waste bin
  • Calibration status of weighing balance.
  • Temperature and Relative Humidity.
  • Requisition Slip check for approval.
