Referenced in the new usp 1207 chapter guidance as a deterministic test method for container closure integrity testing and is an astm test method f2338 also recognized by the fda as a consensus standard for package integrity testing.
Astm vacuum decay leak test method.
1 2 leaks detected this test method detects package leaks by measuring the rise in pressure vacuum loss in an enclosed evacuated test chamber containing the test package vacuum loss results from leakage of test package headspace gases and or volatilization of test package liquid contents located in or near the leak.
