Contamination Control and Source Determination Investigations 

Foreign particulate matter investigations play a crucial role in maintaining the quality and control of the pharmaceutical manufacturing process. These investigations help identify the types of particles present and assess their potential impact on patients receiving treatment.

Contamination Control and Source Determination Investigations at Gateway Analytical involve identifying and tracing the origins of unwanted particulates in pharmaceutical products. This meticulous process ensures product integrity by pinpointing the source of contamination, enabling targeted measures to prevent future occurrences and uphold the highest standards of patient safety and product quality.

A Clear Vision in Contaminant Control

Identifying the particulate matter is only the first step. A thorough investigation must also determine the potential source of the particulate matter. This is necessary to prevent future contamination of the manufacturing process. Failure to investigate the origin of particulate matter displays a lack of control over the manufacturing process, which could lead to regulatory scrutiny and intervention.
