Overview
Stability and compatibility are not isolated tests, but interconnected processes that determine how a product performs over time and within its packaging. We organize and monitor stability, compatibility and microbiological testing to evaluate product performance over time and its interaction with packaging.
Scope of this service
- Design of stability studies (accelerated and real-time conditions)
- Monitoring of physico-chemical parameters - appearance, color, odor, pH, viscosity
- Evaluation under temperature variations and stress conditions
- Freeze-thaw testing, where applicable
- Organization and monitoring of microbiological challenge testing (preservative efficacy test)
- Packaging compatibility assessment - interaction, migration and product changes
- Analysis and interpretation of results
- Documentation for inclusion in the Product Information File (PIF)
Who is this for?
- Manufacturers and brands prior to product launch
- Companies developing new formulations
- Businesses changing packaging or composition
- Clients requiring shelf-life and microbiological stability justification
Outcome
A substantiated assessment of physico-chemical and microbiological stability, as well as packaging compatibility, supporting shelf-life determination and safe product use.
