8.42 Acceptable blending operations include, but are not limited to:
● Blending of small batches to increase batch size
● Blending of tailings (i.e., relatively small quantities of isolated material) from batches of the same intermediate or API to form a single batch
8.42 可接受的混合操作包括但不限于:
● 将小批混合,增大批量;
● 将多批同一中间体或原料药的尾料(例如,分离出的相对较少的量)混合成为一个批号。
8.40 For the purpose of this document, blending is defined as the process of combining materials within the same specification to produce a homogeneous intermediate or API. In-process mixing of fractions from single batches (e.g., collecting several centrifuge loads from a single crystallization batch) or combining fractions from several batches for further processing is considered to be part of the production process and is not considered to be blending.
8.40 根据本文件的目的,混合的定义是为了生产出均匀的中间体或原料药而将同一质量标准的物料混在一起的过程。同一批号几部分(例如,收集一个结晶批号出来的几次离心机装的料)的工艺间的混合,或者混合从几个批号来的部分作进一步加工,看作是生产工艺的一部分,而不是混合。
