Definition

planned process in which a material entity, together with relevant evidence, is assessed against specified requirements to determine whether, and under what conditions, the material entity may exit quarantine or another controlled hold and be made available for a particular use

Explanatory Notes

A material release process may involve a material entity such as an individual item, material unit, lot, batch, or another material grouping under evaluation. Exiting quarantine or another controlled hold does not necessarily mean that the material is used immediately; it means that the material is no longer restricted from the particular use for which the assessment was performed and may be stored, transferred, or otherwise made available for that use in accordance with applicable procedures. The assessment may include review of identity, sampling, testing, examination, documentation, and other specified criteria. ICH Q7 requires materials to be held under quarantine until they have been sampled, examined or tested as appropriate and released for use.

Examples

  • release of an incoming raw material lot for use in media preparation following identity and purity testing; evaluation of a production consumable against receipt inspection results and supplier documentation resulting in rejection for GMP manufacturing use; release of a process intermediate for further processing following assessment of test results and process records; release of a drug substance batch for use in formulation; conditional release of a material lot for a restricted use

Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms

if x is a β€˜material release process’ then x is a β€˜planned process’ that β€˜has participant at some time’ some β€˜agent’, β€˜has input’ some β€˜material conformance specification’, β€˜has input’ some β€˜material product’, β€˜process intermediate material’, β€˜production consumable’, or β€˜raw material’ m, β€˜has pre material state’ some β€˜material hold state’ that β€˜is material state of’ m, β€˜has post material state’ some β€˜material state’ s that β€˜is material state of’ m, and β€˜has specified output’ some β€˜material release disposition specification’ that β€˜prescribes’ s
