Lonza has released a FAQ Tech Tip that looks at data integrity, its requirements and what they mean for ensuring compliance in endotoxin testing


Lonza has released a new FAQ Tech Tip entitled “Data Integrity for Endotoxin Testing” for its QC Insider Toolbox. Data integrity is a fundamental component of the pharmaceutical industry, and the company says this new support tool will assist QC professionals that perform bacterial endotoxin testing.

Data integrity is the degree to which a collection of data is complete, consistent and accurate throughout the data lifecycle and is an essential requirement by regulatory authorities. The new FAQ Tech Tip provides a detailed description of data integrity, its requirements and what they mean, as well as guidance for ensuring compliance in endotoxin testing.

Katrin Hoeck, Head of Marketing Analysis and Testing at Lonza Bioscience Solutions explains: “For QC professionals, it is important to ensure data integrity is implemented throughout their endotoxin testing processes. Our new FAQ Tech Tip not only addresses the basic principles of data integrity, but also provides an in-depth look at the advantages of using a quantitative endotoxin detection system and describes how our WinKQCL Software can help meet data integrity requirements.”

Launched in 2015, the QC Insider Toolbox is an online suite of comprehensive tools designed to help QC professionals conduct the bacterial endotoxins test (BET). It offers a variety of self-directed training resources, support materials and a library of technical information to help ensure success with endotoxin testing.

Registration for the QC Insider Toolbox is free and can be accessed at: www.lonza.com/qcinsider (special use terms apply).
