Testing the impact of sorption on the integrity of seals and closures in pharmaceutical packaging
The Crucial Role of Sorption Testing in Ensuring Pharmaceutical Packaging Integrity
In the pharmaceutical industry, packaging plays a vital role in maintaining the efficacy and safety of medicines. The integrity of seals and closures is paramount to prevent contamination, tampering, and degradation of active ingredients. However, sorption the process by which substances interact with and are absorbed into materials can compromise the reliability of these critical components. To mitigate this risk, Eurolab offers a specialized laboratory service Testing the impact of sorption on the integrity of seals and closures in pharmaceutical packaging.
This essential testing procedure helps manufacturers ensure their products meet stringent regulatory requirements and industry standards. By subjecting seals and closures to controlled environmental conditions, Eurolabs experts can assess their susceptibility to sorption-induced degradation, thereby maintaining product quality and customer trust.
What is Sorption Testing?
Sorption testing evaluates the ability of substances to penetrate, diffuse through, or adsorb onto materials used in pharmaceutical packaging. This phenomenon can be caused by various factors, including
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from packaging materials
Moisture from surrounding environments
Lipids and oils from human skin
The consequences of sorption on seals and closures can be severe compromised integrity, leakage, or even complete failure. As a result, manufacturers face significant economic losses due to product recalls, loss of market share, and damage to their brand reputation.
