Abstract:
Samples and protocols are required by FDA to help ensure the safety, purity, and potency of a product because of the potential lot-to-lot variability of a product produced from living organisms. In cases of certain biological products (e.g., Albumin, Plasma Protein Fraction, and therapeutic biological products) that are known to have lot-to-lot consistency, official lot release is not normally required. However, submissions of samples and protocols of these products may still be required for surveillance, licensing, and export purposes, or in the event that FDA obtains information that the manufacturing process may not result in consistent product quality. The written protocols are reviewed by FDA scientists and other staff with expertise in the appropriate product and scientific area. FDA tests samples to verify the manufacturer's test results. A manufacturer may not distribute a product until FDA gives the official release for the lot.

Short Statement:
The previous burden estimate was 20,572 hours. The current decrease to 18,692 hours (-1,880 hours) is mostly due to a decrease in the total annual responses under section 610.2 (~600 responses). The slight decrease in burden is attributed to the normal variation in the submission of samples and protocols to FDA.
