Example Filled Template

Method Transfer Protocol - Assay AM-DBX-011

Transfer Objective

Transfer the DBX-100 tablet assay method from Site A QC to Site B QC.

Method Scope

The HPLC method supports release and stability testing for DBX-100 tablets.

Roles and Materials

Both laboratories will use reference standard RS-DBX-26 and column type C18-150.

Transfer Design

Each site tests six prepared sample solutions from the same composite blend.

Acceptance Criteria

Mean assay difference between sites must be no greater than 2.0%.

Data Review

QC reviewers verify integrations, calculations, and system suitability records.

Transfer Report

The receiving site may use the method after QA-approved report closure.
