Specifically,

on 4/3/24 1 observed the manual visual inspection process of *** USP ***% batch *** for approximately *** during this time observed all *** operators observe vials that appeared to have white visible particles and classify them as good vials. During this time I also observed that during manual visual inspection the vials remained *** after the *** sterilization process, however there is no evaluation on how the presence of *** on the outer surface of vials affects the performance of visual inspection for defects.
