    The quality requirements of the powder: it should be dry, loose, uniformly mixed, and consistent in color


    (1) Granularity inspection

    1.


    2.


    (1) Measure according to the particle size and particle size distribution method (General Rule 0982 single sieving method)


    (2) Take 10g of the test product, weigh it, and place it in a No.


    (3) Rotate and shake in the horizontal direction for at least 3 minutes, and tap the sieve in the vertical direction from time to time


    (4) Take the powder in the receiving container under the sieve, weigh it, and calculate the percentage


    3.


    (1) The medicine sieve, sieve lid and receiving container under the sieve must be dry


    (2) There must be a tight receiving container under the sieve to avoid powder loss during rotation and shaking


    (3) The powder under the sieve should be collected and weighed


    4.


    5.


    (1) Record the model of the analytical balance


    (2) Record the data of each weighing


    (3) Calculate the percentage based on the weight of the powder passing through the No.


    (2) Uniformity of appearance

    1.
    Brief description This law is applicable to the inspection of the appearance uniformity of powders
    .
    The purpose of this inspection is to control the uneven mixing and inconsistent color of the powder during the production process
    .

    The purpose of this inspection is to control the moisture brought into the powders during the production process or during storage
    .

    2.
    Operation method Take an appropriate amount of the content of the test product, and operate according to the method under each corresponding item of the Chinese herbal medicine moisture determination method (General Rule 0832)
    .

    3.
    The precautions are the same as the corresponding methods of the Chinese herbal medicine moisture determination method
    .

    4.
    Results and judgment The water content of the test product did not exceed 9.
    0%, and it was judged to meet the requirements
    .

    5.
    Records and calculations are the same as the corresponding methods of the Chinese herbal medicine moisture determination method
    .

    (4) Checking the difference in loading

    1.
    Brief description This law is applicable to the inspection of the difference in filling quantity of single-dose packaged powders
    .
    The purpose of this inspection is to control the consistency of the filling volume between the bags (bottles) and to ensure the accuracy of the dosage
    .

    2.
    Method of operation

    (1) Take 10 bags (bottles) of the test sample, weigh them separately, open the seal, pour out the contents, and then weigh the weight of each empty packaging bag (bottle) separately to obtain each bag (bottle) The installed quantity and the average installed quantity
    .

    (2) Compare the volume of each bag (bottle) with the labeled volume or the average volume
    .

    3.
    Matters needing attention

    (1) When weighing, the contents of each bag (bottle) should be poured out completely
    .

    (2) Do not directly touch the test product with your fingers during the weighing process
    .

    4.
    Results and Judgment

    (1) Comparing the volume of each bag (bottle) with the labeled volume (compared with the average volume of the unlabeled volume), according to the provisions of Table 15-20, the volume difference limit is not exceeded; or the volume is exceeded If the difference limit is not more than 2 bags (bottles), and none of them exceeds the filling difference limit by 1 time, they are all judged to comply with the regulations
    .

    (2) If more than 2 bags (bottles) exceed the limit of the difference in filling quantity, or if the difference exceeds the limit of filling quantity not more than 2 bags (bottles) but one bag (bottle) exceeds the limit of filling quantity by 1 time, both It was judged not to meet the regulations
    .

    Table 15-20 Limits for the difference in the quantity of single-dose packaging powders

    5.
    Records and calculations

    (1) Record the model of the analytical balance
    .

    (2) Record each weighing data
    .

    (3) Calculate the weight of the contents of each bag (bottle)
    .

    (4) Calculate the allowable loading range based on the indicated loading volume or average loading volume
    .

    (5) Checking the quantity

    1.
    Brief description This law is applicable to the inspection of the quantity of multi-dose packaged powders.
    The purpose of this inspection is to control the minimum quantity of powders
    .

    2.
    The operation method is in accordance with the minimum loading inspection method (general rule 0942 weight method)
    .

    3.
    Matters needing attention

    (1) In the two weighings of each test product, attention should be paid to the sequence of numbers and the matching of empty containers
    .
