Packaging Considerations for Radiation Processing
August, 2025
Recording of the iia webinar ‘Packaging Considerations for Radiation Processing’, held 31st July 2025.
This webinar explores how radiation sterilization methods impact packaging integrity and material performance. It covers the effects of radiation on common packaging materials, including chemical changes and safety implications, and emphasises the importance of aligning with regulatory standards (USP, ISO). The webinar also discusses key analytical strategies like extractables/leachables profiling, and how tools like Virtual Dose Mapping (VDM) and advanced modeling of real-world conditions can optimise packaging design and ensure regulatory readiness.
Presenters:
- Arthur Dumba – International Irradiation Association (iia), General Manager
- Wendy Mach – Canyon Labs, Sr. Director of Technical Services
- David Gallegos, PhD – Canyon Labs, Director of Analytical Laboratories
- Tobias Funk, PhD – Dose Insight, Founder
