Key violations include:
1.  **Failure to conduct identity testing for components:** The firm did not adequately test incoming inactive ingredients, including glycerin, for identity and high-risk contaminants like diethylene glycol (DEG) and ethylene glycol (EG), relying on supplier COAs without validation.
