Often they do not know the chemical constitutes of the polish or of the gases. Our approach to cleaning, in this case, is use of a non-polar solvent to remove organics followed by a polar solvent to remove inorganics.

If it passes, then QC will release the intermediate for the next synthesis step. The quality unit then reviews the entire batch records at the end and releases the final API. It seems that Q7A requires that the quality unit review the batch records and test results at each step, prior to moving to the next step. This may not be practical in some cases. 1.15K viewsDrugsPharmaceutical 0 Votes 1 Ans When and where do we start applying CGMPs? For example, we may use isopropanol to make the reaction of our API or to purify API.
