Verification or Validation of Methods in Food Microbiology - By AtoZ Compliance

23 February 2017 01:00-02:00, United States


Introduction
Overview :

Method validation and method verification are two distinct procedures required to combat food bioterrorism/ comply with ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2005 for a microbiological media laboratory accreditation and microbiological contamination control in pharmaceutical clean rooms. 

Unfortunately, the two terms are often used interchangeably with serious consequences in bioterrorism food and FDA inspection readiness checklist.

Why Should You Attend :

Without a clear understanding of the different analytical approaches for verification and validation, laboratories often end up doing more unnecessary, costly work, with little benefit for FDACGMP compliance, FDA audit training, FDAGMP compliance or for FDA good documentation practices.

Very often the inappropriate analytical strategy used is unacceptable to meet the requirements for FDA validation training/ accreditation and the effort needs to be repeated. Learn to do the microbiology media preparation, right the 1st time!

Areas Covered In This Webinar :

Quantitative and Qualitative methods have different performance measurement requirements and require different statistical analyses. 

Although method validation and method verification are related terms, they have very different analytical and statistical requirements particularly for compliance with ISO/IEC 17025:2005. 

Understanding these differences is essential for developing appropriate strategies for assessing a method’s fitness for purpose. 

This webinar will not only address the semantics, but will also discuss the appropriate analytical and statistical approaches to achieving successful verification and validation studies.
