Operational Qualification (OQ) dose mapping of gamma irradiators typically involves using homogeneous materials. However, the real-world scenario often deviates from this model, as products sent for irradiation may vary significantly in density. This introduces complexity into Performance Qualification (PQ) dose mapping and the control of the irradiation process.
This webinar will examine PQ dose mapping and routine irradiation, providing practical examples of how to handle products with non-uniform density distribution within or between irradiation containers. Viewers will gain insights into the principles of OQ dose mapping, the specific challenges posed by non-uniform products, and strategies to effectively manage these complexities.
Participants will learn about the techniques used in OQ dose mapping, how to address the challenges associated with non-uniform density products, and the importance of maintaining control over the irradiation process. The session will also cover strategies for ensuring that irradiation processes are both effective and compliant with industry standards.
By understanding the intricacies of OQ dose mapping and the challenges posed by non-uniform products, professionals involved in sterilization, quality assurance, and process validation can enhance their dose mapping strategies. This knowledge will help ensure that their irradiation processes are consistent, reliable, and meet regulatory requirements, ultimately improving the quality and safety of the final products.
