这个可以作个参考§211.82 Receipt and storage of untested components, drug product containers, and closures. (a) Upon receipt and before acceptance, each container or grouping of containers of components, drug product containers, and closures shall be examined visually for appropriate labeling as to contents, container damage or broken seals, and contamination. [43 FR 45077, Sept. 29, 1978, as amended at 73 FR 51932, Sept. 8, 2008] 213. A number of comments on 211.82(a) said individual containers of components, containers, and closures need not be visually examined before acceptance as long as they are checked before use. The rationale for the comments is that a visual check of each container is impractical and unrealistic for large shipments of bagged materials that are palletized as a unit and/or shrink-wrapped. The respondents suggested that tearing apart materials packaged in that manner would be costly and could be better done before use rather than in a receiving area. It was the Commissioner's intent in this paragraph to provide for a simple check at the time of receipt to detect obvious problems such as the wrong article, damaged containers, or visible contamination which would preclude any further handling of the materials. He recognizes, however, that individual container examination of large lots of bagged or boxed materials is impractical when they are received. Therefore, this requirement is revised to provide for examination of each container or grouping of containers. 214. A number of comments expressed concern over the possibility of contamination if containers of components and other materials are opened for examination in the receiving areas of factories. To avoid cross-contamination it was suggested that examinations be limited to the exterior of the containers or to shipping containers. The Commissioner notes that this paragraph does not specify that seals must be broken for purposes of examination. It is the intent of this paragraph that a visual examination be performed. In most cases it would be adequate to limit the examination to shipping containers. If the firm feels an inspection should be made in depth, proper precautions must be taken to prevent cross-contamination. |
