The application of skip testing to drug substance manufacture
29 February 2016 | By Phil Borman, Simon Bate and Keith Freebairn, GlaxoSmithKline
Skip testing is a process employed to reduce the analytical drugs testing burden and lends itself to processes with high frequency batch production. Rather than test all batches within a given interval, pre-selected batches are assessed and the other batches ‘skipped’. This reduction is justified as it is shown that…
