5 Technical FAQs for Metrochem Walk-In Interview
1. What is the difference between Quality Assurance and Quality Control in API manufacturing?
Answer: Quality Assurance is a process-oriented function responsible for establishing systems that ensure pharmaceutical products are consistently manufactured according to GMP and regulatory requirements. QA activities include document control, deviations, CAPA, change control, validation and audits. Quality Control is product-oriented and focuses on sampling, testing and analyzing raw materials, intermediates, APIs and other samples against approved specifications.
2. What is GMP, and why is it important in an API manufacturing facility?
Answer: GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practices. GMP provides requirements for personnel, premises, equipment, manufacturing operations, documentation, quality control and storage. Following GMP helps ensure that APIs are consistently manufactured and controlled according to established quality standards while reducing the risks of contamination, mix-ups and manufacturing errors.
3. What is CAPA in the pharmaceutical industry?
Answer: CAPA stands for Corrective Action and Preventive Action. Corrective Action identifies and eliminates the root cause of an existing deviation or quality problem to prevent recurrence. Preventive Action identifies potential problems and implements measures to prevent their occurrence. CAPA is an important component of pharmaceutical quality management systems.
4. What is the importance of preventive maintenance in pharmaceutical engineering?
Answer: Preventive maintenance involves inspecting, servicing and maintaining pharmaceutical equipment at predefined intervals. It helps reduce unexpected equipment breakdowns, improves equipment reliability, maintains product quality and supports continuous manufacturing operations. All preventive maintenance activities should be performed according to approved procedures and properly documented.
5. What is FIFO and FEFO in pharmaceutical warehouse management?
Answer: FIFO (First In, First Out) means materials received first are issued first. FEFO (First Expiry, First Out) means materials with the earliest expiry or retest date are issued first. FEFO is particularly important in pharmaceutical warehouse operations because it helps prevent materials from expiring before use.
