Environmental Monitoring in the Pharmaceutical Sector

  • 2° EDITION: 24 May 2024
  • Online
  • Italian

Training overview

Analytical validation, according to the criteria described in the ICH Q2 guideline, has been applied in the pharmaceutical industry for many years but it is not always clear how to verify validation characteristics and how analytical validation results are statistically processed/interpreted. The purpose of the training “Validation of Analytical Methods according to ICH Q2” is to provide the necessary tools and basics for those tasked with performing analytical validation. The course therefore focuses on the interpretation of the ICH Q2 guideline by examining the main features of validation, recalling the most traditionally used statistical methodologies and defining the applicable acceptance criteria. All with a series of practical examples.
