Validation and Research Activities
Sterilization Validation is a documented, regulatory-compliant process confirming that sterilization method consistently achieve a pre-defined Sterility Assurance Level (SAL), typically 10⁻⁶.
It involves equipment qualification (Installation Qualification- IQ / Operational Qualification- OQ/ Performance Qualification - PQ), bio burden evaluation to ensure product safety.
SARC carries out periodic validation in accordance with the ISO 13485 & ISO 11137 for Gamma Sterilization.
SARC Also undertakes the research studies on following aspects using Co-60 Source:
Development and modification of polymers for healthcare industries including Medical Devices.
Development of Gamma Radiation Sterilizable Material for Packaging material, Plastic Wares, Containers, Pharma Products including API, Cosmetics and Industrial Products.
Optimization of Radiation doses for Shelf-life enhancement of Food & Food products, Spices, Ayurvedic & Herbal Products, Meat & Meat Products, Marine Products and Agriculture Produce.
Optimization of Radiation doses for coloration of Gem Stones from different sources.
Optimization of Radiation doses for Depolymerization / Degradation and Crosslinking of Polymers for various Industrial applications.
