Quality Control Laboratory Compliance Seminar: cGMPs and GLPs - San Francisco, CA, United States - March 29th-30th, 2018

DUBLIN, Jan 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Quality Control Laboratory Compliance - cGMPs and GLPs: One and a Half-day In-person Seminar" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This course will examine the fundamental requirements for all QC laboratories subject to FDA inspection, recent trends from FDA inspection reports and enforcement actions. In addition, this course will include a list of relevant regulations and guidelines and demonstrate how quality control and quality assurance personnel can monitor industry practices to stay current with FDA requirements (cGMPs and GLPs).

FDA inspection and oversight of quality control (QC) laboratories are essential elements of the agency's evaluation of the compliance status of regulated companies representing multiple industries - pharmaceuticals, biologics, medical devices, as well as foods and cosmetics - as well as the contract QC laboratories which service these industries. Lack of compliance can result in severe regulatory actions, criminal liability, fines, and the inability to obtain product approvals.

Learning Objectives:

    --  The basics of FDA law and regulations governing QC laboratories
        responsible for testing research materials, components of FDA-regulated
        products, and finished FDA-regulated products (pharmaceuticals,
        biologics, medical devices, cosmetics, and foods).
    --  Laboratory organization, personnel qualification and training
        requirements.
    --  Documentation and record-keeping requirements, including e-records and
        data integrity.
    --  Sample integrity requirements.
    --  Management and control of stability (shelf-life) studies.
    --  Analytical methods verification and validation.
    --  Management and control of laboratory instruments.
    --  Management and control of laboratory supplies.
    --  Proper conduct of laboratory investigations.
    --  Consequences of laboratory non-compliance.

Who Should Attend:

Senior directors, managers, supervisors and those who have responsibility for ensuring that QC laboratory operations and practices comply with current good manufacturing practices and good laboratory practices.

    --  Quality Assurance
    --  Quality Control
    --  Research & Development
