Container Performance Testing
as established by USP <671>
At Bird Dog Laboratories, we test the functional properties of packaging systems used for solid oral dosage forms (SODFs) and liquid oral dosage forms (LODFs). The methods used determine the moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) i.e., water vapor permeation rate, for plastic packaging systems for manufacturers, packagers and repackers. The methods also allow pharmacists and institutional repackagers to select appropriate containers to repackage SODFs and LODFs.
