The sampling and testing of materials does not by itself assure product quality. It must be part
of a comprehensive 'Quality Management System', including QA and GMP, which must be
correctly implemented and controlled. This module includes GCLP, interpretation of analytical
data and non-conforming results, the principal qualitative and quantitative analytical methods
in common use, the principles of method selection and validation, sampling, physical and
organoleptic testing, stability testing and the significance of degradation, contamination and
adulteration of pharmaceutical materials.
