GBA Pharma Labs have expanded their testing portfolio in the field of syringe testing. With the zwickiLine testing machine from ZwickRoell required tests can be performed with standardized test tools and prepared standard test specifications. This significantly reduces the adjustment effort prior to testing. Tests on primary packaging materials and on the combination of drug and primary packaging material (known as a combination product) have gained in importance. Numerous ISO standards such as ISO 11040 for prefilled syringes and various chapters of the US Pharmacopeia (USP) such as USP <382> or USP <1382> require physical and functional testing of combination products.
