6 Test rule

6.1 Test

Samples were taken according to the method specified in the General Rule 0211 of the Four Parts of the Pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China (2015 edition), and the products that were evenly mixed and had the same nature and quality within a certain limit were tested as the same batch.

6.2 Inspection Classification

6.2.1 Delivery inspection

Before leaving the factory, the quality inspection department of the factory shall inspect the products batch by batch according to the requirements of 4.2 ~ 4.5, and the products that pass the inspection and issue the quality certificate can be sold before leaving the factory.

6.2.2 Test type

Carry out type inspection according to chapter 4.Type inspection shall be carried out every six months in case of any of the following situations:

A) when there is a big change in raw materials;

B) Adjustment of key processes;

C) Resuming production after replacing equipment or stopping production;

D) There is a big difference between the results of ex-factory inspection and the last type inspection.
