USP-NF (788) sets the standards for acceptable particulate matter levels in injectable drug products. Following these standards allows you to ensure your products are free from harmful levels of particulate contamination, which can cause adverse effects when introduced into the bloodstream.
Knowing what is in your drug products is essential to ensuring their safety. Particle contamination from packing, production tools, or delivery devices can occur at any point in the manufacturing process, packaging, or storage. You need to know what particles are present, where they come from, and how to mitigate or eliminate them to get your items to market, keep them there, and avoid last-minute delays.
