Critical
VAR-HPLC-02-001 · Acceptance-Criteria Failure
- Approved approach
- Detector response shall meet R² ≥ 0.999 across the approved range.
- Actual result
- Seeded observed result R² 0.994 did not meet the approved criterion.
- Immediate action
- Prohibit quantitative assay use and assess restricted qualitative identity use.
- Retest required
- Yes — controlled authorization only
- Report disclosure
- Required
- Disposition
- Conditional restricted use approved; retest remains required.
Accepted
RA-HPLC-02-001 · Risk assessment
- Hazard / failure mode
- Detector response is not demonstrated across the approved quantitative range.
- Potential consequence
- Quantitative results may not be scientifically supported.
- Initial risk
- High
- Residual risk
- Medium
- Acceptance authority
- QA Reviewer
- Rationale
- Qualitative identity use does not rely on demonstrated quantitative response across the full range.
Formal quality-system boundary
Sentinel escalation required
Sentinel escalation is required: formal investigation required, critical failure prior result impact.

Boundary state: External Action Required. Linked change CHG-2026-031 is a seeded reference; no live synchronization or Sentinel workflow is implied.

Retest control
- Authorization
- RET-HPLC-02-001
- Original execution
- EXEC-HPLC-02-DET-LIN-A01
- Scope
- Repeat the approved detector-linearity test once after prerequisites are documented.
- Investigation reference
- Seeded external investigation action; Sentinel workflow is not implemented.
- New attempt
- EXEC-HPLC-02-DET-LIN-A02
None proposed
Protocol amendment
Technical amendments create a prospective test-definition revision. They never rewrite completed execution history.
