In recent years, the regulatory requirements for balances used in pharmaceutical analysis have undergone significant updates across major pharmacopoeias — including the USP (United States Pharmacopeia, latest version 07/2025), Ph. Eur. (European Pharmacopoeia, 07/2021, currently under revision), JP (Japanese Pharmacopoeia, 06/2024), and ChP (Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 03/2025).
This webinar offers a comprehensive overview of the latest changes, with a focus on calibration, performance verification, traceability, minimum weight determination, and the implementation of safety factors. Participants will gain valuable insights into global harmonization trends, risk-based approaches to calibration and verification, and best practices for maintaining compliance.
In addition, practical guidance will be provided on how to establish robust quality management systems, document weighing procedures effectively, and prepare for upcoming regulatory developments. Join us to ensure your laboratory remains compliant, efficient, and aligned with the evolving global standards for balances in pharmaceutical quality control.
