ICH Q7 Guidelines

Question

What are the basic ICH Q7 guidelines for handling reference standards?

Joseph Bennett · Accepted Answer

By no means my area of expertise, but I would think this is what you're after:Primary reference standards should be obtained as appropriate for the manufacture of APIs. The source of each primary reference standard should be documented. Records should be maintained of each primary reference standard’s storage and use in accordance with the supplier’s recommendations. Primary reference standards obtained from an officially recognised source are normally used without testing if stored under conditions consistent with the supplier’s recommendations.from Q 7 Good Manufacturing Practice for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (europa.eu) (section 11.17; see also glossary at the end)
