| Compare Container Closure Integrity Testing (CCIT) and visual inspection methods by examining their strengths and limitations. Visual inspection is useful for identifying visible defects, such as cracks or incomplete seals, but it cannot reliably detect microscopic leaks. CCIT methods, especially deterministic technologies, provide quantitative and repeatable results capable of identifying very small defects that compromise sterility. This comparison explains why visual inspection alone is insufficient to confirm true container closure integrity and why CCIT is essential for ensuring sterile barrier performance in pharmaceutical and medical device packaging.
