Two-Day Track on AIQSV
This year, the program includes a new track on Analytical Instrument Qualification and System Validation (AIQSV). Participants will receive an overview of the regulatory requirements for qualifying analytical equipment and validating the software of computerized systems. The key requirements of USP General Chapter <1058> will be discussed, along with selected aspects of the new ECA Guide for an Integrated Lifecycle Approach to Analytical Instrument Qualification and System Validation.
The board members of the ECA AQCG will be part of the speaker team, and the track will be moderated by Dr Christopher Burgess (Chairman of the AQCG Board).
The ECA AIQSV Guide
The new Guide for an Integrated Lifecycle Approach to Analytical Instrument Qualification and System Validation was written by Dr Christopher Burgess and Dr Bob McDowall (Members of the AQCG Board and of the ECA IT Compliance Interest Group).
The ECA has decided to publish the Guide widely by allowing users to download the document free of charge. The PDF file is available in the AQCG members' area. For further information and to apply for a free membership, please visit the group's website.
