Biocontamination Control for Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare (eBook)

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. The first edition of the book covered many of the aspects of the strategy, but the new official guidance signals that a roadmap is required to fully comply with its requirements. Completely updated with the newest version of the EU-GPM (EN17141) the new edition expands the coverage of quality risk management and new complete examples to help professionals bridge the gap between regulation and implementation. Biocontamination Control for Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare offers professionals in pharma quality control and related areas guidance on building a complete biocontamination strategy. - Includes the most current regulations - Contains three new chapters, including Application of Quality Risk Management and its Application in Biocontamination Control, Designing an Environmental Monitoring Programme, and Synthesis: An Anatomy of a Contamination Control Strategy - Offers practical guidance on building a complete biocontamination strategy
