Manufacturing and QC
- GMP/SOP Dedication to quality consistency
- All ingredients must match blueprint analysis
on the NIR - Stored in temp/climate controlled area
- Particle sizing
- Microbiology/QC/QA
17
Blending
- Each ingredient is pre-measured into pre-blend
containers - QC verifies all pre-blend weights
- Pre-blend is put into the V-Blender system for
thorough mixing Nitrogen flushing - Batch then moves through QC verification to
tablet, capsule or powder dept.
