LiteratureOverview
Duetotheirimportance,equipmentqualificationissueshavebeenaddressedbyseveralorganizations.Before1990theregulatoryfocusofinstrumentandcomputervalidationwasprimarilyonmanufacturingequipment,whichchangedafter1990.Inresponsetoindustrytaskforces,regulatoryagenciespublishedguidancedocumentsthathelpedtheindustrytobetterunderstandregulatoryrequirements.Inaddition,privateauthorspublishedreferencebookswithpracticalrecommendationsforimplementation:
∙ThePharmaceuticalAnalysisScienceGroup(UK)developedapositionpaperonthequalificationofanalyticalequipment(6).Thispaperwasabenchmarkbecauseitintroducedthe4Qmodelwithdesignqualification(DQ),installationqualification(IQ),operationalqualification(OQ)andperformancequalification(PQ)foranalyticalequipmentqualification.
