Good Weighing Practice™
The Weighing Standard
In R&D, quality control, manufacturing, and logistics, weighing is just one step in a whole process or analysis chain. However, weighing can strongly influence the quality of the final product. Accurate weighing is essential to ensure continuous adherence to process requirements. Out-of-specification (OOS) results, rework or disposal of batches can be systematically avoided by taking into consideration the guidance of the following standards.Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of weighing instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- Measurement Uncertainty, including Repeatability, Linearity, Sensitivity and Eccentricity
- Factors that Influence Weighing Performance
- Minimum Weight
- Performance Verification
- Process Tolerance
Good Titration Practice™
Risk-free Titration
Dependable titration starts long before daily routines in the laboratory: A requirements-based selection of the titration system, as well as professional installation and training form the basis of dependable and risk-free titration.Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- Sources of Error
- Curve Interpretation
- Titration Methods
- Reagent Handling
- Sensor Use and Maintenence
- Sampling
Good Electrochemistry Practice™
Know Your pH Measurement Risks
Dependable pH, conductivity, ion concentration, dissolved oxygen, and redox measurements start long before daily routines in the laboratory: A requirements-based selection of the sensors and pH meters, as well as professional installing and training form the basis for dependable and risk-free pH determination.Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of weighing instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- pH Electrode Calibration
- Buffer Error
- Sensor Input Error
- The pH/Temperature Relationship
- Techniques for Reducing Measurement Uncertainty
Good Thermal Analysis Practice™
Results Accuracy and Precision Preservation
Dependable analysis of thermal material properties starts long before daily routines in the laboratory: a requirements-based selection of the system as well as professional installation, qualification and training from the basis of dependable and error-free thermal analysis measurements. Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
- Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)
- Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA)
- Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA)
Good Density & Refractometry Practice™
Risk-free Measurement of Density and Refractive Index
Dependable analysis of density and refractive index starts long before daily routines in the laboratory: a requirements-based selection of the system as well as professional installation and training form the basis for dependable and error-free measurement of density or refractive index. GDRP reduces the risks associated with density and refractive index analysis.Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include

Good Melting and Dropping Point Practice™
Risk-free Measurement of Melting and Dropping Point
Ensure the right equipment is used in a suitable environment by appropriately trained operators. Required by melting point determination and especially in dropping and softening point tests, the strict adherence to international standards such as Pharmacopeias, ASTM, ISO or IP is imperative in order to achieve consistent and comparable results. GMDP reduces the risks associated with melting and dropping point analyses. Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- Modes of Evaluation
- Instrument Calibration
- Tips for Sample Prep and Measurement

As each step is thoroughly documents, traceability and up-to-date regulatory compliance is guaranteed.Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
Free Lunch and Learn Course Topics Include
- UV/VIS Optical Setup
- Wavelength Selection in Quantification
- Effect of pH and Temperature
- Micro-volume UV/VIS
Good Data Integrity Practice
Risk-free Measurement of Data Integrity
No instrument or software based system alone can be compliant to the electronic record regulation: 21 CFR part 11. To ensure the integrity, trustworthiness, and reliability of electronic records, three types of controls must be implemented: Administrative, Procedural, and Technical. Good Data Integrity Practices reduces the risks of receiving FDA warning letters and poor data management practices associated with SOPs. Our technical specialist will also discuss time-saving techniques for routine operations through hands-on demonstrations of instruments. At the end of the seminar, all attendees will receive a certificate of completion.
