📢 Blog Post Alert! In our latest blog post, Mark reviews why performance testing matters for pharmaceutical products and how USP Testing ensures product quality.

In the pharmaceutical industry, packaging is more than a container—it is a critical component of product quality, stability, and patient safety. USP, Containers—Performance Testing, establishes standardized methods for evaluating the moisture v***r transmission characteristics of pharmaceutical packaging systems. These tests help manufacturers verify that their packaging adequately protects products from environmental conditions that could impact quality, potency, or shelf life.

The revised USP chapters and USP became official on December 1, 2025. These new chapters require pharmaceutical companies to demonstrate that their packaging materials and systems are suitable for their intended use and do not compromise product quality or patient safety.

USP Testing - Spectral Transmission Testing

Moisture isn’t the only variable that affects product stability. Light exposure, especially UV and visible wavelengths, can degrade certain formulations over time. In some cases, packaging that performs well against moisture still doesn’t provide enough protection from light.

USP includes spectral transmission testing to measure the amount of light that passes through a container. This helps determine whether the packaging provides the level of protection the product requires.

USP Testing - MVTR and Packaging Performance

MVTR answers a simple question: how much moisture is getting through the container, and is that acceptable for this product?

Even small amounts of moisture can affect stability over time. That’s why MVTR matters most with moisture-sensitive products, especially solid and liquid oral dosage forms.

If that comprehensive testing isn’t conducted, it usually shows up later as a packaging issue you have to go back and fix, which can slow timelines and force rework.
