    LED lighting is becoming common in manufacturing and commercial environments. Does anyone currently, or have future plans to conduct photostability-testing under LED light sources? In the absence of a Guidance, what conditions would you use?

    Hey there,

    LED lighting is indeed gaining popularity in manufacturing and commercial settings, and it’s great that you’re thinking ahead about photostability testing under LED sources. While there’s no specific guidance yet, you can start by simulating natural light conditions as closely as possible.

    For photostability testing, you might want to consider the following conditions:

    Intensity and Spectrum: Match the intensity and spectrum of your LED lights to those typically found in natural daylight or in your specific application environment.
    Duration: Test for durations that mimic real-world exposure. This could mean continuous exposure over a period equivalent to the expected shelf life of the product.
    Temperature and Humidity: Keep these conditions consistent with those your products will face in actual use.
    Engaging with other professionals and led light buyers can also provide additional insights and practical experiences that can help fine-tune your testing conditions.

    Best of luck with your testing!
