Pharmaceutical: Importance of TOC Measurements for Pharmaceutical Water Systems
. The water treatment industry continues to develop and improve purification technologies and. while the systems can consistently produce Purified Water, Highly Purified Water and WFI, the. testing and documentation requirements have become more stringent. Pharmaceutical-grade. water systems must meet

Pharmaceutical: Updating International Standards For Pharmaceutical Waters
back as 1989, the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) and the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) began investigating alternatives to the wet chemistry tests. At that time, the principal focus was not on the water, but on the reliability of the water testing. Updating

Achieving Clean Pharmaceutical Water
in pharmaceutical water systems. Depth- and membrane-type filters are often used. Final filtration as the sole treatment for water purification generally is not acceptable. If filters were used as the only barrier and a failure occurred, the water would be recontaminated with the entire volume

SMB Takes On Paclitaxel Purification
is injected onto a ring of chromatographic columns at rotating points between the columns. At the same time, streams are withdrawn from the ring at rotating points, simulating the movement of the stationary bed. SMB has been applied to pharmaceutical separations [9-10] and is now in commercial use in FDA
