Utility description: Cobalt58

Cobalt58 Quality Checker — radiopharmaceutical QC utility.

Limited source description was provided. The utility shall read input.csv, validate declared fields, apply deterministic acceptance rules defined in the executable and produce output.json for QA/QC review.

URS & FS — User Requirements and Functional Specification

This document describes the controlled interface and behaviour of Cobalt58QualityChecker for Cobalt58.

Domain limits and critical parameters

Key fragments from the source description are shown below. Before production use, limits must be verified against the approved specification, registration dossier and local SOPs.
  • Critical limits must be defined in the approved specification and implemented in the executable.

URS — User Requirements Specification

IDRequirementCriticalityAcceptance criterion
URS-001The utility shall accept an input.csv file with the exact headers defined in the data contract.HighThe file is processed without manual header editing.
URS-002The utility shall perform deterministic QC evaluation for Cobalt58 using input values, approved limits and domain rules.HighEach input row receives a PASS / WARNING / FAIL status.
URS-003The utility shall validate mandatory fields, data types, numeric ranges, units and pharmaceutical/radiochemical plausibility.HighSchema and conversion errors are explicitly reported.
URS-004The utility shall identify critical deviations related to radionuclidic purity, radiochemical purity, free radionuclide, impurities, pH, endotoxins and sterility when such fields are present.HighA critical deviation causes FAIL or a separate critical finding.
URS-005The utility shall generate output.json with machine-readable results, source values, warnings and failures.HighJSON is suitable for LIMS/ELN/MES integration and QA/QC review.
URS-006The utility shall not use machine learning to decide conformance.MediumThe result is based on explicit rules, thresholds and input values.
URS-007The utility shall preserve traceability between batch number, input values, applied rules and final status.HighThe output contains the batch identifier and the list of checked parameters.
URS-008The documentation shall support IQ/OQ preparation and inspection discussion with FDA/EMA/Roszdravnadzor or local regulators.MediumURS & FS, input.csv/output.json contract and test scenarios are supplied with the utility.

FS — Functional Specification

IDFunctionImplementation
FS-001CSV importRead input.csv in UTF-8/CSV-compatible format and validate the header and expected columns.
FS-002Schema validationCheck mandatory fields and column count; report unknown or missing key fields.
FS-003Type conversionConvert numeric, flag and text values; invalid formats are recorded as row-level errors.
FS-004Domain rule engineApply domain rules for Cobalt58, including critical limits from the utility description and approved specification.
FS-005Status aggregationProduce final status: FAIL for critical failure, WARNING for non-critical deviation, PASS for conformance.
FS-006JSON exportWrite output.json with detailed checks, source values, warnings, failures and critical findings.
FS-007Audit supportKeep the result structure suitable for review, deviation investigation, calculation reproduction and IQ/OQ preparation.
FS-008Integration contractSupport the production scenario: LIMS/ELN/MES creates input.csv, the utility returns output.json, the portal displays description and documentation.

QA/QC and change control

  • Do not rename columns without updating the validator and test set.
  • Retain input.csv, output.json, executable version and checksum.
  • Before production use, perform IQ/OQ/PQ or equivalent CSV/CSA verification.
  • Critical radiopharmaceutical limits must be verified against the approved specification and local SOPs.
