Quality Control
Our quality control team makes it possible to deliver products with all necessary tests and adequate documentation for our clients.
Throughout our production chain, we implement meticulous testing processes to ensure that our products meet the highest quality standards. Therefore, during the manufacturing process we perform all the necessary analyses (chemical-physical, microbiological and galenic developments) and register them on our computer system.
Some examples of our testing procedures, during production and for the finished products, are as following:
TESTING OF POWDER MIXTURES
- Organoleptic characteristics.
- Mesh size.
- Density of powder or granules.
- Rheological characteristics.
- Active ingredient content.
- Determination of humidity.
- Microbiological analysis.
TESTS DURING COMPRESSION OR ENCAPSULATION
- Organoleptic characteristics.
- Dimensions.
- Weight, mass uniformity.
- Degree of tablet hardness.
- Capsule or tablet disintegration time.
- Tablet friability.
- Determination of humidity.
- pH.
- Microbiological count.
TESTS IN PRIMARY PACKAGING
- Organoleptic characteristics.
- Hermeticity of the blister.
- Filling of containers.
- Lot and expiration marking.
TESTS IN SECONDARY PACKAGING
- Units per case.
- Box labelling control (lot, text, and expiration date).
- Units per box.
- Control box packaging labelling.
- Units and pallet placement.
- Pallet labelling (product coding, batch and expiration date).
FINAL PRODUCT TESTING
- All previously mentioned test, which are deemed as appropriate are carried out, to ensure that the product is flawless and according to specification.
TESTS ON RAW MATERIALS
- Organoleptic characteristics.
- Mesh size.
- Density of powder or granules.
- Active ingredient content.
- Determination of humidity.
- Microbiological analysis (fungi y yeasts, aerobes, colis, pathogens).
- pH.
- Solubility.
- Identification.
We have the capability to conduct the majority of these tests internally, leveraging our extensive range of testing equipment. For the tests that cannot be performed in-house, we collaborate with certified external labs to ensure accurate and reliable results.
We can determine purity through the polarimetry of amino acids, and we differentiate spectroscopical parts, through qualitative and quantitate determination, using ultraviolet and infrared lamps and using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet and fluorescence detectors. Regarding the phytochemical analysis, we use thin layer chromatography to determine the quantities.
Lastly, we study the possible existence of microorganisms or bacteria, in a microbiology lab, such as Aerobes, Moulds, Yeasts, Salmonella, E.Coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria.
R&D Department
Throughout the years, innovation, investigation and development have become a core component of our company and main objectives for the future.
Thanks to the involvement of our R&D team, we have managed to be a benchmark in this area for our clients who, together with the department, have managed to transform the initial idea into safe and innovative products, with the aim of to offer a satisfactory experience for the end user.
We strive towards finding viable solutions and giving clear and concise answers, about our products and productions, to any questions that our clients may have.
We carry out studies and analyses on the stability of the products, playing a very important role in the manufacturing process. For this purpose, we have two stability chambers; one under real conditions (temperature 25ºC and 40% RH), and another under accelerated conditions (temperature 40ºC and 75% RH).
Throughout the entire process of creating, developing and manufacturing products, our R&D team accompanies every step, to operate at the highest level and precision. Hereby guaranteeing the satisfaction of our clients and customers.
Our long-term objective is ceaseless growth and innovation of our company and your lives.
Laboratory committed to quality
The internationally validated quality certificates of Laboratorios Anur provide added value to our products and also to our manufacturing processes.
