6.3???Visual Inspection and ?Criteria

清潔驗證目視檢查和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)

?

Visually Clean (VC) is one criterion used to assess surfacecleanliness. This criterion is significant in that ifthere is visible residue on the surface, then the equipment isnot considered clean. The visual inspection is anactiveobservation of all visually accessible productcontact surfaces of the pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment after everycleaning. It is a GMP requirement [77] and must determine that the equipment isfree from any visibleresidues inorder for the cleaning to be considered adequate. Additionally, GMPs requirecompleting a visual inspection immediately before manufacturing activities cancommence[78].

目視清潔是評價表面清潔的一個標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。這個標(biāo)準(zhǔn)很重要，因為如果表面有可見的殘留物，那么設(shè)備就不被認為是清潔的。目視檢查是在每次清洗后，對所有可視的且接觸產(chǎn)品的制藥生產(chǎn)設(shè)備表面進行主動觀察。這是GMP要求[77]，必須確定設(shè)備沒有任何可見殘留物，才能被認為是足夠的清洗。另外，GMPs要求在生產(chǎn)活動開始前立即完成一次目視檢查[78]。

6.3.1??Visible Residue Limit Studies

可見殘留限度研究

?

It is possible to conduct Visible Residue Limit (VRL) studies todetermine the level of visible detection of residues for many soilants andsurfaces. A method to determine the detection level is by spiking decreasingamounts ofeach residue onto testingcoupons representative of equipment surfaces, allowing them to dry, and then havingthem?viewed by a group of observers. Multiple observers should view theresidues under different light levels, fromdifferentdistances, and from different angles to mimic actual visual inspectionconditions in order to provide a more rugged visuallimit.

可進行可見殘留限度(VRL)研究，以確定各污染物和表面的可見殘留檢測水平。確定檢測水平的方法是，將逐步遞減的每種殘留物噴到代表設(shè)備表面的測試樣板上，使其干燥，然后由一組觀察人員對其進行觀察。為了提供更可靠的目視限度，這些觀察人員應(yīng)在不同的光照水平，不同的距離和不同的角度觀察殘留物，以模擬實際的目視檢查條件。

?

“Thelowestresidueamountthatisvisibletoallobserversisthevisualdetectionlimitforthatproduct.”[3]

“所有觀察人員都能看到的最低殘留量就是該產(chǎn)品的目視檢測限度?！盵3]

?

If the residues can be consistently observed at a known residue level,and this level is much lower than the cleaning acceptance criteria, then VCprovides a high degree of confidence that the equipment is sufficientlycleaned. Even with a visual limit in place, VC is predominately not consideredadequate by itself for establishing cleaning validation. Direct surfacesampling (e.g., swabs or TOC rinse measures) is also required [17]. However, VCcould be used as a criterion along with periodic sampling in a routinemonitoring program after the cleaning validation is complete [79]. Ifhistorical data shows that the visual limit is higher than what was obtainedvia coupon studies, launch aninvestigationto verify. If the out of specification is correct, then raise theVRL.

如果可以在已知的殘留量水平上始終能觀察到殘留物，并且該水平遠低于清潔可接受標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，則目視清潔（VC）可提供較高置信度表明對設(shè)備進行了充分清潔。即使建立了目視限度，絕大多數(shù)認為目視清潔本身不足以建立清潔驗證。還需要直接表面取樣（例如：棉簽或TOC淋洗水）[17]。然而，在清潔驗證完成后，目視清潔可以與定期取樣一起作為日常監(jiān)測程序中的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)[79]。如果歷史數(shù)據(jù)表明實際目視限度高于測試樣板研究獲得的目視限度，應(yīng)展開調(diào)查以確認。如果確實不符合標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，應(yīng)提高目視檢查限度。

?

For the VRL to have value, the data or results for the margin of safety for VI (distancebetween the safety limit andtheresidue level represented by the VRL) must be sufficiently large to compensatefor the variability between operators performing the VI and also the inherentvariability of the VI itself. Operators performing VRL determinationsshould?be qualified in the method. VI for VRL determinations should beperformed by an operator and verified by a second operator prior to theequipment being released for use. In addition, a periodic review of thecontrols is necessaryafter thecleaning process has been qualified to ensure that performance has not beennegatively impacted by increased or new sources of variability and to confirmthat a VRL is still a valid and justifiedapproach.

為了使VRL具有價值，VI（安全限度與VRL所代表的殘留水平之間的距離）的安全系數(shù)的數(shù)據(jù)或結(jié)果必須足夠大，以補償執(zhí)行VI的操作員之間的差異和VI本身固有的可變性。在該方法中應(yīng)對執(zhí)行可見殘留限度檢查的操作人員進行確認。可見殘留限度的VI應(yīng)由操作員執(zhí)行，并在設(shè)備放行使用前由第二位操作員復(fù)核。此外，在清潔工藝確認后，應(yīng)定期審查控制措施，以確保性能不受累加的或新的變異性的不良影響，并確認可見殘留限度仍是有效且合理。

?

If the VRL is at a level above the cleaning acceptance criteria, thenVC has limited value in determining whetherthe equipment is sufficientlycleaned.

如果可見殘留限度VRL高于清潔接受標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，則目視清潔在確定設(shè)備是否得到充分清潔方面的價值有限。

VRL studies are determined using well-defined parameters to enable itsuse in cleaning programs and minimize subjectivity. The viewing variablesassociated with studying visible residue must be defined, and thenexperimental parameters for the study canbe established [80]. The parameters consideredare:

可見殘留限度研究通過定義明確的參數(shù)以供在清潔程序中使用，并將主觀性降到最低。應(yīng)明確與研究可見殘留物相關(guān)的觀察變量，然后可以建立研究的實驗參數(shù)[80]?？紤]參數(shù)如下：

• MOC

• 結(jié)構(gòu)材料

• Lightconditions

• 照明條件

• ?Viewingdistance

• 觀察距離

• Viewingangle
  

• 觀察角度

• Observervariability
  

• 觀察人員的差異

• Solventeffects
  

• 溶劑影響

?

The MOC must match or represent the ones used in the equipment to becleaned (e.g., SS, polycarbonate, glass, etc.). Conducting VRL studies for allequipment MOCs is not logical. For example, a VRL on a white surface (e.g.,PTFE) would be much higher than on a SS surface [81]. Therefore, VRL studiesshould be coordinated with swab sampling of the equipment to confirm swabresults are lower than the VRL. The swab results would alsodemonstrate equivalent cleaning for allMOCs. After validation, for routine monitoring it could be concluded that ifthe SS surfaces were visibly clean, then all surfaces were cleaned to the sameextent.

結(jié)構(gòu)材料必須與待清潔設(shè)備（例如不銹鋼，聚碳酸酯，玻璃等）相稱或具備代表性。對所有設(shè)備結(jié)構(gòu)材料都進行VRL研究是不科學(xué)的。例如，白色表面（例如PTFE）上的VRL會比SS表面上的VRL高得多[81]。因此，VRL研究應(yīng)與設(shè)備的擦拭采樣相協(xié)調(diào)，以確保棉簽結(jié)果低于VRL。擦拭結(jié)果還將證明所有結(jié)構(gòu)材料的清潔效果均相同。在驗證之后，對于日常監(jiān)測，可以得出結(jié)論，如果不銹鋼表面明顯清潔，則所有表面都被清潔到相同程度。

?

Lightingconditionsforvisualdeterminationsforcleanlinesswillvaryfromonepieceofequipmenttoanother,andfrom room to room. Lightintensity parameters should be determined for the visual inspection procedureintended to be used. Light intensity levels above 200 lux do not have an impacton visual observations, but light levels below 200 lux inhibit the ability todetect visible residues[80].

目視確定清潔度的照明條件會因為設(shè)備和房間的不同而異。應(yīng)為擬使用的目視檢查程序確定照明參數(shù)。高于200 lux的照明對目視觀察沒有影響，但是低于200 lux的照明會抑制檢測可見殘留物的能力[80]。

?

The viewing distance and viewing angle are based on the manufacturingequipment that is used at the site. Larger pieces of equipment can often beviewed at a distance of no greater than 10 feet and could have a restrictedviewing angle[80].

觀察距離和角度取決于現(xiàn)場使用的生產(chǎn)設(shè)備。較大的設(shè)備通?？梢阅恳暀z查的距離不超過10英尺，并且視角可能會受限[80]。

?

The variations in observers can be minimized by implementing clearprocedures, training observers on how to conduct visual inspectionsconsistently, and establishing the VRL parameters as controls for VIdeterminations.

可通過執(zhí)行清晰的程序，培訓(xùn)檢查人員如何一致地進行目視檢查以及建立可見殘留限度參數(shù)作為VI確定的控制，以減少觀察人員之間的差異。

6.3.2??Visible Residue Limit and SafetyLimits

可見殘留限度和安全限度

?

It can be justified and documented that for chemicals and activeswhere the VRL is significantly (e.g., lower than 20% of the margin of safety)lower than the SL, equipment surfaces cleaned to a VC level following cleaningofthepreviousproduct would ensure with low risk the next manufactured product’s identity, strength,quality, and purityfrom a cleanequipmentperspective.

可以證明和記錄，對于可見殘留限度顯著低于安全限度（例如：低于安全邊際的20％）的化學(xué)活性物質(zhì)，在該產(chǎn)品清潔后，設(shè)備表面清潔至目視清潔水平可以確保對下一個生產(chǎn)產(chǎn)品的特性，強度，質(zhì)量和純度的風(fēng)險較低。

?

“Assuring adequate removal of non-intrinsic cleaningagents such as surfactants often involves very highhealth- based residual limits and the absence of visible residueis a much more stringent criteria than the health-based residual limit.”[3]

“確保適當(dāng)去除外在清潔劑（例如表面活性劑，通常具有非常高的基于健康的殘留限值），并且沒有可見殘留是比基于健康的殘留限值更為嚴格的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)?！?[3]

6.3.3?Non-AccessibleAreasandtheVisualInspectionProcess

不易接近區(qū)域和目視檢查過程

?

Product quality concernsshould be addressed for areas not accessible to visual inspection. Some methodsincludea cleaning comparisonevaluation or boroscoping. A risk-based approach should be applied when usingeither of these methods, especially for actives with low ADE/PDE (high hazard)values.

對于無法目視檢查的區(qū)域，應(yīng)關(guān)注產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量問題。一些方法包括清潔比較評估或浸涂。當(dāng)使用這兩種方法中的任何一種時，都應(yīng)采用基于風(fēng)險的方法，尤其是對于具有低ADE / PDE（高風(fēng)險）值的活性物質(zhì)。

?

6.3.3.1??CleaningComparisonEvaluation

清潔可比性評估

?

If equipment that is not visually accessible (e.g., a transfer line)is cleaned with a cleaning process as robust, ormore robust than equipment that is visually accessible, it maybe argued that the visually inaccessibly equipment is also clean.

如無法直接目視檢查（例如傳輸管道）的設(shè)備的清潔過程與能夠目視檢查的設(shè)備相當(dāng)穩(wěn)健或更加穩(wěn)健，則可認為無法直接目視檢查的設(shè)備也是干凈的。

?

The cleaning of the inaccessible areas needs to be equal to or greaterthan the cleaning of accessible areas. For example, a tank and transfer linewith the same production soil are cleaned using the same cleaning parameters(i.e., cleaning time, cleaning agentconcentration, and temperature). The only difference is the cleaning action.The tank is cleaned using impingement and cascading action, and the transferpipe is cleaned using turbulent flow. If the piping cleaning flow meets theappropriate turbulent flow, it can be rationalized that the transfer line isclean to a visual cleanliness level since the tank areas cleaned via cascadingaction were demonstrated to beVC.

不可及區(qū)域的清潔需要與可及區(qū)域的清潔相當(dāng)或更多。例如，清潔具有相同生產(chǎn)污染物的儲罐和輸送管道使用相同的清潔參數(shù)（如清潔時間，清潔劑濃度和溫度）。唯一的區(qū)別是清潔動作。儲罐可以使用沖洗和傾瀉清潔，而輸送管道則需要使用湍流清潔。如果管道清潔水流滿足適當(dāng)?shù)耐牧?，則可以有理由認為輸送管道清潔達到目視清潔度，因為已證明通過沖洗清潔的儲罐區(qū)域為目視清潔。

?

Thisrationalecouldalsobeusedforpartsofthesameequipment.Forexample,ifaspoolpiece(i.e.,determinedtobeVC after cleaning) on the transfer line system was cleaned via the samecleaning process and shown to be as difficult or more difficult to clean as therest of the transfer line system, it could represent the whole transfer linesystem.

該原理也可用于同一設(shè)備的部件。例如，如果通過相同的清潔過程清潔了傳輸系統(tǒng)上的管道（即，清潔后確定為目視清潔），并且顯示出與其余傳輸系統(tǒng)一樣難以清潔，可以代表整個傳輸系統(tǒng)。

?

It is not necessary todemonstrate that all visually accessible area cleaning actions (i.e.,impingement and cascading in the case of the tank) are less than or equal tothe visually inaccessible area cleaning action to make theargument. Each situation should beevaluated individually while considering the cleaning process and cleaningdifficulty.

沒有必要證明所有能夠目視檢查的區(qū)域清潔活動（即：儲罐的沖洗）都小于或等于不能目視檢查的區(qū)域清潔活動。在考慮清潔過程和清潔難度時，應(yīng)分別評估每種情況。

?

6.3.3.2??Boroscoping

內(nèi)窺鏡檢測

Pipes, transfer lines, and other inaccessible areas can be visuallyinspected using a boroscope. Any remote visual inspection should be qualified.The benefit of boroscoping inaccessible areas should be weighedagainst the equipment maintenance andlongevity risks of routinely breaking line connections and performingintrusive?inspections.The decision for or against routine boroscoping for visual inspection should bethoroughly riskassessed.

管道、傳輸管線和不易接觸的區(qū)域可以使用內(nèi)窺鏡進行檢查。所有遠程目視檢查都應(yīng)被確認。應(yīng)權(quán)衡對不易接觸區(qū)域的內(nèi)窺鏡檢查的好處和設(shè)備維護和定期打開管路連接進行侵入式檢查的壽命風(fēng)險。允許或反對常規(guī)內(nèi)窺鏡目視檢查的決定應(yīng)進行徹底的風(fēng)險評估。

?

6.3.4?????OrganolepticInspection

感官檢查

?

The removal of odors or color residues may need to be confirmed aspart of cleaning validation. Where the requirement is not based on safety, andwhere there are no calculated residue limits, the acceptable removal ofthe residue may be performed by using thesense of smell or through visualinspection.

作為清潔驗證的一部分，可能需要確認氣味或顏色殘留的清除。如該要求不是基于安全，并且也沒有計算出的殘留物限度，則可以通過嗅覺或目視檢查來執(zhí)行可接受的殘留物去除。

Visualinspection of the surfaces can be quantified and so may also be used were aresidue limit iscalculated.

表面的目視檢查可以量化，因此也可以用于計算殘留限量。

?

Detection of odors can be enhanced by sealing the equipment itemovernight. For example, by closing a lidded vessel or containing the equipmentin a bag, any odor is concentrated, giving a greater assurance that no odorwillbe carried over into the nextproduct.

對設(shè)備部件進行過夜密封，可以增強對氣味的檢測。例如，通過蓋上容器的蓋子或?qū)⒃O(shè)備裝在一個袋子里，任何氣味都被集中，從而更加保證氣味不會被帶到下一個產(chǎn)品中。

?

Those involved in manufacturing may become desensitized to the odor;therefore, the test is more effective if itis performed by someone not involved in the manufacture of thatproduct.

生產(chǎn)人員可能對氣味失去敏感性；因此，如果由不參與該產(chǎn)品生產(chǎn)的人員進行測試，則該測試會更有效。

?

The level of qualification should be risk based. The level of the risk(i.e., business risk or product risk) shouldmatch the level ofqualification.

確認級別應(yīng)基于風(fēng)險。風(fēng)險級別（即業(yè)務(wù)風(fēng)險或產(chǎn)品風(fēng)險）應(yīng)與確認級別相匹配。

?

The detection of colored products may be enhanced by examining a swabused to sample difficult-to-inspect points where material may gather, forexample seal interfaces. However, detection of residual color during samplingis already too late to prevent a cleaning failure. A more practical approachfor a piece of equipment having a color or dye ingredient is to thoroughly wipethe entire surface of the equipment with solvent (e.g., 70% isopropyl alcohol)as the last step of the cleaning process. This is often done during cleaning toremove residual water, but can alsoserveas a check on color removal before the equipment gets to the visual inspectionand samplingsteps.

有色產(chǎn)品的檢查可以通過使用棉簽擦拭難以檢查的易于累計物料的位置（例如密封接口）。但是，在采樣期間檢測殘留顏色已經(jīng)太遲了，無法防止清潔失敗。對于具有顏色或色素成分的設(shè)備，一種更實際的方法是在清潔過程的最后一步中用溶劑（例如70％異丙醇）徹底擦拭設(shè)備的整個表面。這通常是在清潔過程中完成的，以去除殘留的水，但也可以在設(shè)備進入目測和取樣步驟之前，對顏色的去除進行檢查。
