EDQM: New Ph. Eur. Chapter on Data Quality with a Focus on Digital Data

The European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) has introduced a new general chapter that provides a framework for managing the quality of data, including digital data, throughout its life cycle. 

It covers aspects such as accuracy, completeness, reproducibility, and bias, as well as the role of experts in automated decision-making. The chapter will come into force with Ph. Eur. Issue 12.3 on 1 July 2026.
