Foreign Matter Analysis
Foreign Particulate Matter (FPM) contamination is an issue even in highly regulated and controlled environments such as the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries.
Presence of FPM can affect product quality, safety and efficacy, leading to loss of batches, product recalls and regulatory action.
