Formulas used for calculation: A) Dose criterion (0.001)


mg of active ingredient in product A permitted per 25 sq cm swab area = Where I = (SF * Smallest strength of product A manufactured)/day expressed as mg/day & based on the number of mg of active ingredient J = Maximum number of dosage units of Product B1 taken/day K = Number of dosage units per batch of final mixture of Product B 1 L = Equipment surface area in common between Product A & B 1/B2 expressed as cm U = Swab area (25 cm/swab) (I/J) X (K/L) X U

B) Toxicological Criterion
mg of active ingredient in product A permitted per 25 sq cm swab area = Where NOEL = No observed Effect Level = NOEL = LD50 X (W/E) LD50 = Lethal Dose 50 in mg/kg animal for active ingredient in product A E = Empirical Constant = 2000 S = Safety Factor = 0.01 - 0.001 (for Oral Products ) J = Maximum number of dosage units of Product B1 taken/day K = Number of dosage units per batch of final mixture of Product B 1 L = Equipment surface area in common between Product A & B 1/B2 expressed as cm U = Swab area (25 cm/swab) NOEL x K x U SF x J x L

C) 10 ppm Criterion
mg of active ingredient in product A permitted per 25 sq cm swab area = Where R = 10 mg active ingredient in product A/kg Product B2 N = Number of kgs per batch of final mixture of Product B 2 L = Equipment surface area in common between Product A & B 1/B2 expressed as cm U = Swab area (25 cm/swab) R X (N/L) X U

Question regarding Calculation of J Maximum Daily Dose for any product is the maximum number of dosage units (J) which could be taken daily. I try to explain you in a simple manner, assuming the next product to be manufactured on the machine after cleaning is ABC tablet (5 mg). Go back and check the package insert for that product (or any other authentic source like Martindale/Goodman & Gillman), check the maximum daily dose for similar product or active ingredient. Sometimes package inserts states that "not more than 6 tablets/day (J = 6) or 30 mg daily (J = 30mg/5mg = 6, where 5mg is the amount of the active ingredient in the tablet)". In certain cases where maximum daily dose for the product/active ingredient is not provided, the value for "J" could be obtained from the normal daily dose for the product, e.g. the normal daily dose for the product is 3-6 tablets/day, "J" would now be 6, assuming that "6" is the maximum number of times the tablet could be consumed daily.

Please note to calculate the MACO, first you should know the both products TDD (Therepetic daily dose) then you can calculate the MACO as per the equation given in the APIC cleaning validation guide. Then you can get the MACO in mg. If you don't have the TDD of the products , you can calculate the MACO as per general limit criteria. O.1% general limit for intermediates and 0.01% criteria for finished products. You can multiply the subsequent product batch size in mg and devided by 100 to get the MACO in mg. If you have TDD of the products, then also you can calculate the MACO as per general limit criteria and compare the both carryover and you can consider which ever is lower value [Worst case]. You can calculate the MACO in ppm, you should know the surface areas of the equipment train of the facility. Please note only common equipments surface areas shall be considered for calculation.

First you shall calculate the MACO of existing product to subsequent product as per TDD and General limit methods. Consider the lowest MACO value from the both methods. The considered MACO value shall be divided by total rinse volume of the equipment train and then you will get the total equipment train MACO limit for rinse. Eg: MACO value as per TDD: 850 ppm MACO value as per General limit: 758 ppm Consider the General limit MACO value (758 PPM) for further calculation MACO value for total equipment train = MACO value/Total equipment train rinse volume i.e. 758/75 = 10.1 ppm

MACO value for individual equipment = MACO of total equipment train X individual equipment surface area/ Total equipment tra

t surface area/ Total equipment train surface area
