Qualified Persons are required to perform routine duties in line with the general principals of a QP. A Qualified Person must ensure that the following criteria is completed before batch release is possible:

The batch must meet ‘The Marketing and Manufacturing Authorisation or Investigational Medicinal Products Authorisation requirements for Medical Products.

The GMP guidelines as stated in Directive 2003/94/EC (human) or Directive 91/412/EEC (veterinary).

Validation of the principal manufacturing and testing processes.

Performed the necessary quality control checks and tests in line with manufacturing procedure.

Review of batch records.

Any deviations in packaging, quality procedure or manufacture to be notified in accordance with the defined reporting system before any product is released.

Additional sampling and inspection, tests and checks to be carried out in response to any deviations.

Regular audits, spot checks and self-inspections.

All legal requirements are met.

Maintain a register as a record of product batches that have been released by the Qualified Person.

Retain reference samples of each product at the site of manufacture for the required amount of time as specified by the EU regulations.

To ensure that any tasks that the QP has allocated to existing staff are being performed to the required GPM and EU standards.

The overall task of a Qualified Person is to produce an overall plan for the quality management system. It is the duty of the Qualified Person to make sure that any tasks that have been allocated are being performed to the necessary standards. Hence the routine duties of the Qualified Person depends very much on a team effort where in the individuals realise the responsibility of the Qualified Person and offer the support required.

Matt Tong has built up relationships within the pharmaceutical industry in order of offer consultant QP services with expertise across the full spectrum of human and animal drugs/medicines. The consultants provide services in the areas of batch realise, facility audits, industry standards, QA/QC advice and regulatory assistance in the UK and Europe.

  • The Z-Boson Mass and its Formula as Multiple Proofs in One Bowl of Yummy Pudding - By: Sean Sheeter
    A demonstration of the mathematical, theoretical and, especially, empirical connotations of the phrase "Pudding Proof" in the context of a highly exacting physical model. In particular, a formula is given deriving the mass of the Z-boson from two heavy quarks and and Higgs field. Remarkably, the precise correlation with the known value of the Z-mass is thus empirically proof positive of these far less directly measurable masses, which is further supported by arithmetic and theoretic construct.
  • The Theory, Significance and Precise Calculation of Gluino Mass - By: Sean Sheeter
    A preview of the most significant predictable particle cascades at Cern's LH-Collider in the coming years. Describes how a precise gluino mass of 6.388355 TeV relates to the super-symmetric Higgs mechanism and decays to squarks and other 'sparticles as a prerequisite to creation of 'dark mass,' as well as the unsolved puzzle of material baryon creation. Which also goes on to shows why giving three dimensionless calculations for the gluino mass are central to the e-course "241-Mumbers."
  • Derivation of the Pure Precise Fine-Structure Number and as a Ratio of Two Inexact Metric Constants - By: Sean Sheeter
    A history of a definitive answer to #1 'millennium question' of Strings 2000 in regard to whether all fundamental parameters can be determined in a dimensionless manner. Focus's on a 'pure' calculation of the fine-structure constant from a unified 'monolithic' system that allows precise equations for the full spectrum of fundamental particle masses from Higgs/SUSY to quarks, neutrinos and dark matter. With an update on controversies of determining the fine-structure from metric measures and a few other related issues.
  • Proof of the Exact Up and Down Quark Masses from the Pion Mass-Differential - By: Sean Sheeter
    A discussion of the equivalence of the mass differential between the charged and neutral pion as a function the mass difference between the down and up quark. Given the unprecedented mass value of the down quark = 7.763258 MeV, the up quark mass is calculable from the even more exacting d-u mass differential = 4.593453 MeV, where the experimental pion mass difference = 4.5936 plusmn.0005 MeV.

    Windmills are a major source of renewable energy. Erection of windmills promotes development of industry, tourism and other coastal infrastructure facilities. Predominant wind direction and wind power density is noticed in Andaman Group of Islands such as North Andaman, Middle Andaman, South Andaman, Little Andaman and Teressa Island is Southwest. In order to sustain the environment in an eco-friendly manner, windmill site selection is carried out in North Passage Island, Andaman.

    U.S. coastal counties face severe meteorological hazards as compared to any other country in the Earth. Hence in order to formulate a methodology for the quantitative assessment of natural hazard vulnerability due to climate change, the study is attempted. Recent scientific tools such as remote sensing and GIS were integrated. Methodology for developing site specific models for the study is strategically planned and executed.

    Erosion and accretion along the Tuticorin coast were identified using Landsat 5 TM May 1993, IRS P2 LISS II May 1996 and IRS 1C LISS III May 2002 data in comparison with Survey of India toposheet no L1 & L5 (1969) as baseline data. Geomorphic study of Tuticorin coast showed that the entire coastline is prograding and the coastal process that has been taking place is similar as noticed from IRS P2 1996, IRS 1C 2001 and IRS 1C 2002 satellite imageries.
