48、 requires ongoing verification of the quality of sterilized dextrose intravenous infusion, it is suggested that, instead of concentrating solely on evaluation of the final product, he also direct his attention to the manufacturers quality system. In this connection it should be noted that SANS 9001 and SANS 13485 cover the provisions of an integrated quality system. Bibliography SANS 9001/ISO 9001, Quality management systems Requirements.
