The factors which must be evaluated in order to qualify a product for radiation sterilization will be detailed. It will also compare the characteristics of this method with other technologies currently available. The highest SAL can be achieved by combining a knowledge of the microbial quality of the raw materials, and the manufacturing environment with a formulation designed to promote the most radiation stable form of the product.}, issn = {0006-3363}, URL = {https://journal.pda.org/content/49/2/83}, eprint = {https://journal.pda.org/content/49/2/83.full.pdf}, journal = {PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology} }
