Biocontamination Control for Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare
outlines a biocontamination strategy that tracks bio-burden control and
reduction at each transition in classified areas of a facility. This
key part of controlling risk escalation can lead to the contamination of
medicinal products, hence necessary tracking precautions are essential.
Regulatory authorities have challenged pharmaceutical companies,
healthcare providers, and those in manufacturing practice to adopt a
holistic approach to contamination control. New technologies are needed
to introduce barriers between personnel and the environment, and to
provide a rapid and more accurate assessment of risk. This book offers
guidance on building a complete biocontamination strategy.
- Provides the information necessary for a facility to build a complete biocontamination strategy
- Helps facilities understand the main biocontamination risks to medicinal products
- Assists the reader in navigating regulatory requirements
- Provides insight into developing an environmental monitoring program
- Covers the types of rapid microbiological monitoring methods now available, as well as current legislation
