Quality Control System & Activities -
Quality control laboratories housed in the same building but separated and independent from production department .quality control manager is reporting to the vp (operations). Quality control is responsible for sampling, inspecting and testing and subsequent release or rejection of starting materials, packing material, bulk intermediate,bulk finish products,finished products. Quality control laboratory is equipped with modern instrument like HPLC, Spetrophotomer, polarimeter, Karl Fischer Instruments etc.
Microbiology department is a part and parcel of quality control department and is responsible for microbiological attributes of water, products and environment control and analysis.
Quality control is further divided into two sections:-
- In process quality control(IPQC)
- Laboratory
In Process Quality Control :
In process quality control is responsible for ensuring that correct product is manufactured and correct label is attached. IPQC is also taking part in the activity of identifying and weighing correct ingredient in the stores ,filling and packing line operation.IPQC also check physical parameter while packing operations are going on.
Laboratory
Laboratories comprises of the following sections:-
- Chemical Analysis
- Instrumental analyses
- Microbiological analyses.
These three sections undertake activity which are broadly described follows :
Analysis of incoming raw material, packing material, bulk and finish products, need based microbiological analysis, analysis potable water, purified water etc.
Calibration of the laboratory instruments and thermometers ,validations of manufacturing process and equipments.
Quality control issue need based batch manufacturing record and batch packing record to production and packing line .
Laboratory takes care of packing components analysis for specification such as GSM, dimensions, print matter and other matter as per party’s in house specification method.
We do analysis of raw material and finished products for purity and assay with the general method of analysis, with help of sophisticated instruments like HPLC, Spectrophotometer, polarimeter, karal fischer apparatus ph meter etc as per pharmacopoeia and/or party’s methods.
Microbiological department analyses raw material and finished products for microbiological limit test such as bacterial count and absence of specific pathogens.
Potable water and purified water is analysed for microbial limit test such as bacterial count and absence of specific pathogens. Environment control is monitored as per the appropriate method.
