Overview
Non-clinical research and development laboratories running safety and regulatory studies answer to monitoring authorities and study sponsors, not only to accreditation bodies. This integrated system brings the OECD Principles of Good Laboratory Practice, FDA 21 CFR Part 58, ISO/IEC 17025, ISO 15189 and ISO 9001 into one controlled framework built around study integrity: study plans and protocols, Study Director and personnel responsibilities, test-item characterisation and handling, standard operating procedures, raw-data capture, archiving and final report certification. A quality assurance programme independent of study conduct supplies the inspections and audits that GLP requires.
An integrated quality manual and a compliance scheme map each principle to a control. Procedures run across organisation and impartiality, facilities and environmental conditions, equipment calibration and metrological traceability, handling and storage of test and reference items, method selection, verification and validation, sampling, evaluation of measurement uncertainty, and ensuring the validity of results. Guidance addresses data integrity and the ALCOA+ principles, decision rules and statements of conformity, and GLP principles for non-clinical studies, while chain-of-custody records, study plans and certificates of analysis carry the day-to-day evidence. The ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 15189 layers add technical-competence rigour for analytical and bioanalytical work.
What this system covers
- GLP study lifecycle — study plans and protocols, Study Director responsibilities and final report certification
- Independent quality assurance — a GLP quality assurance unit programme kept separate from study conduct
- Test and reference items — receipt, chain of custody, characterisation, storage and retention
- Data integrity — raw-data capture, ALCOA+ principles, data change control and archiving
- Analytical competence — method verification and validation, measurement uncertainty, sampling and decision rules
- Facilities and equipment — calibration periodicity, performance verification, environmental monitoring and biosafety inspection
- People — competence and authorisation matrices, deputising arrangements and training effectiveness
- Reporting and release — certificates of analysis, report review, and acceptance criteria for internal quality checks
Who it's for
Contract research organisations, toxicology and bioanalytical laboratories, and research facilities preparing for inspection by a GLP monitoring authority or for a sponsor's audit. Study directors, quality assurance staff and quality managers adapt the documents to their study types, test systems and facilities. The outcome is a laboratory in which study conduct, raw data and independent quality assurance are systematised, and a completed study can be reconstructed from its records on request.
