Process evaluation validating input

In order to release a product - and all its updates - for clinical use, it is mandatory to re-evaluate all the open defects for their level of risk none with severe safety risks can be left open, all those remaining have to be formally evaluated and accepted, documenting the reasons for the acceptance and/or the workaround to be applied. The formal defect disposition is the last step of the validation process and an input to release process. Defect list, risk evaluation, disposition and justification are part of the validation records. In special cases a version can be approved for release if the validation documents are not formally completed in no case can a version be approved if the risk evaluation is not completed. 

Model validation requires confirming logic, assumptions, and behavior. These tasks involve comparison with historical input-output data, or data in the literature, comparison with pilot plant performance, and simulation. In general, data used in formulating a model should not be used to validate it if at all possible. Because model evaluation involves multiple criteria, it is helpful to find an expert opinion in the verification of models, that is, what do people think who know about the process being modeled ... 

Process validation entails firstly the definition of both the critical and non-critical parameters. Qnce they are defined, emphasis can be directed to designing a program to validate these parameters. Some established steps involve the evaluation of process consistency over at least three batches, via the consideration of the processing steps and yield and comparing these with predetermined specifications. Some input parameters that may be considered as critical are temperature, flow rate, and stirring speed, and they are varied and checked against output variables such as yield, purity, and crystallization rate. 

To link fermentation process input parameters to output parameters, specifically behavior in downstream isolation steps and ultimate product quality, usually a partial or total purification is necessary, which requires substantial labor to process samples [10], Sample evaluation also is limited depending on the level of product characterization. Consequently, fermentation process validation has been viewed as less rigorous compared with other forms of process validation [10],... 

On the other hand, the calibration presumes a constant value for the product of coolant mass flow and specific heat capacity. The purpose of the calibration this time is twofold. For one, the proportionality of the difference in temperature between coolant inlet and outlet and the power input shall be calibrated. This way, rh, Cp,- becomes a calibration constant. Practice has shown, however, that this procedure allows an evaluation of the power output of the investigated process only to a limited extent of validity. It is much more recommendable to install a precision mass flowmeter in the coolant circuit, which allows the continuous registration of the measured signal...
