Definition
compendial grade classifier that classifies a portion of water that conforms to the requirements stated in a Water for Injection pharmacopeial monograph and thus has very high purity
Explanatory Notes
1) The Water for Injection (WFI) grade is a compendial classification applied to water when conformance to an applicable WFI monograph has been demonstrated. In the European context, EMA guidance points to compliance with the European Pharmacopoeia WFI monograph. In the U.S. context, FDA inspection guidance frames WFI as a USP monograph-defined water grade. 2) In regulatory and GMP practice, WFI is best treated as a compendial-grade designation: a batch or portion of water is WFI because it meets the applicable WFI monograph requirements, and it can lose that designation if storage or distribution conditions allow microbial proliferation, endotoxin risk, or other quality risks to rise. 3) The classifier is constrained to classify water and to indicate that purity is a relevant reported quality for the classified water;
Examples
- USP Water for Injection classification of a pharmaceutical water lot; Ph. Eur. Water for Injection classification of water used in sterile drug product manufacturing; WFI classification of water supplied from a qualified pharmaceutical water system; WFI classification of water used for final formulation of an injectable drug product;
