The Basic Science Behind Stability Testing
Stability testing includes chambers that are used for the judgment of the effects of pre-specified environmental circumstances on biological materials and industrial as well as electronic components. The use of this stability chambers is common for testing humidity ranges and temperature. It is also used as specimen testing for decomposition. It is also used in pharmaceutical industry. Stability testing also means how well a product works and retains its properties over its whole lifetime. Stability testing tests the quality of the product and conducts test during the development phase of any product.
There needs to be a lot of research in this field as product’s whole life is dependent on stability testing. Stability testing is efficient in finding the smallest defect in a product. Stability testing can be used to specify the environmental conditions on products and materials. These environmental conditions include:
– Various temperature variations
– Sudden extreme temperatures
– Rain
– Electromagnetic radiation, etc.
Selecting stability chambers is dependent upon the need of individual project and after a thorough market research. Stability chambers are large enough and are completely still but the need of modern testing applications is smaller and portable units. This is called as “small scale stability testing” and is commonly used in food and pharmaceutical product testing. The technology in this field has gone up to a vast level and there is a lot more to come advanced in this field. There is a wireless technology used in this field. This is a most convenient way of using this technology. The wireless kit contains calibrated censor caps, logger caps and related logging software compliant software.
Information about working of stability testing:
– Capsules of humidity are used to control humidity inside the chamber.
– Capsule of humidity is pierced and then it is placed in the test chamber.
– The test material is placed in one of the other compartments in the test chamber.
– Sensor caps incorporate temperature inside the cap and the cap is also used to seal the test chamber.
– A memory chip is fixed in the logger cap and a transceiver is connected to the sensor cap and it collects the receiving data wirelessly.
– The temperature and humidity conditions are then transferred wirelessly to control software for presentation and reporting.
Stability testing includes various benefits. It increases the life and quality of the product by finding even small and minute defects in the product after manufacturing. Some of these benefits include:
– Environmental chambers not required.
– Each test monitored in its own micro-humidity chamber.
– Humidity conditions are available in full range.
– The requirement of space is very small.
– Simple set-up.
– Data is backed up automatically.
– Test system complies with GAMP V.
– It is ideal for the use of toxic materials.
