Course Description:
In Pharmaceutical Continuous Manufacturing (PCM), technical solutions ensuring critical quality attributes for content uniformity (CU) and unit dose exist for on-line, in-line, and at-line measurements. What is the best way to integrate PAT-based devices, to select sensor technologies; what best-practice solutions exist to avoid complexity in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)? This webinar will address how to overcome operational challenges—providing an overview of the current state of this technology and its impact on control strategy and real-time release (RTR).
