The phenomenon occurs when shiny, thin glass layers (lamellae) detach from the interior surface of a glass container and float in the contact liquid.\u00a0These subvisible glass particles (SVGPs) can cause serious health risks, including infusion-related complications. Given that delamination often goes undetected until later stages of storage, pharmaceutical companies face potential recalls, supply chain disruptions, and financial losses. The key to addressing this issue is early detection\u2014before visible contamination occurs.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"625\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-49.png\" alt=\"Glass vials\" class=\"wp-image-6763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-49.png 625w, https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-49-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-49-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-49-350x350.png 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-6760_31bb3c-02 .kt-block-spacer{height:60px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-6760_31bb3c-02 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-6760_31bb3c-02\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_ccfa59-18\">The Challenge of Detecting Glass Delamination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The instability of borosilicate glass vials\u2014especially in areas with high alkali content, such as the vial\u2019s heel\u2014is the primary cause of glass delamination. During the glass conversion process, high-temperature treatments create chemically uneven surfaces, making some vials far more prone to delamination than others. While the number of recalls peaked in 2011, the issue persists, with up to two product recalls still reported each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because delamination occurs gradually, waiting for visible glass flakes to appear is not a reliable strategy. To prevent contamination and ensure product integrity, researchers need fast, sensitive, and high-throughput techniques capable of detecting early signs of glass instability before it becomes a dangerous issue.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-6760_073e9c-44 .kt-block-spacer{height:60px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-6760_073e9c-44 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-6760_073e9c-44\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_44f578-22\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_44f578-22\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_44f578-22\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading6760_44f578-22 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6760_44f578-22\">BMI: The Most Effective Method for Early Detection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Various methods exist for detecting subvisible particles, yet not all identify transparent glass particles like SVGP well. The three primary approaches include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Light Obscuration (LO),<\/strong>\u00a0as described in USP &lt;788> and Ph. Eur. 2.9.19, measures particles that are at least 10 \u03bcm or 25 \u03bcm in size and can detect some as small as 2 \u03bcm. It works by shining a light through a sample and measuring how much of that light is blocked by particles\u2014the more light a particle blocks, the bigger it is. While commonly used, LO has limitations: it requires a large sample volume, works slowly, and struggles with viscous formulations. It also isn\u2019t effective at detecting transparent particles like SVGP since they don\u2019t block enough light to register.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flow Imaging Microscopy (FIM),<\/strong>\u00a0on the other hand, captures images of particles as they flow through a cell to calculate their size, shape, and count at the pixel level. Despite providing high-quality images, it\u2019s low-throughput and needs a relatively large sample (at least 200 \u03bcL) like LO. Both LO and FIM have difficulty detecting transparent particles like SVGP, making them less reliable for that purpose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Background Membrane Imaging (BMI)<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/nextgen\/global\/products\/particle-analyzers.html\">Aura<\/a>\u00a0System offers a more powerful solution. This method isolates subvisible particles onto a filter for microscopic analysis, offering high throughput with small sample volumes. More importantly, BMI is better suited for detecting transparent particles, such as SVGP, because the refractive index of these particles are much higher in air than in aqueous buffer. Therefore, BMI can effectively detect transparent SVGP.\u00a0This makes BMI the best option for detecting transparent SVGP.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-50.png\" alt=\"Figure 1.
