In this issue is a discussion on the promise of virally vectored DNA and mRNA vaccines to combat COVID-19 as well as articles on how packaging could help to ensure patient adherence, regulatory issues for medicines and diagnostics during the pandemic and the benefits of digitalising the pharmaceutical supply chain.…
Facilities perform environmental monitoring (EM) to demonstrate a state of control.
Many bacterial species have been found to exist in a viable but non-culturable state. Jeanne Moldenhauer discusses this phenomenon and makes suggestions as to why we don’t often see an increase in viable cells when using viability-based methods.
When it comes to microbial contamination testing, false results can waste valuable time.
Nelson Labs has a long history of partnering with pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies. We perform a variety of testing to support your internal quality processes including: sterility (USP 71) testing in a cleanroom for isolator environment, particulates testing (USP 787, 788) using a variety of methods, bacterial endotoxin, filter validations,…
Those who work in QC know that the job is more than a box to be checked, and that it can’t be done effectively without confidence in the reported results. Tight timelines, regulatory demands, and stringent data integrity standards can make it hard to focus on what’s really at stake…
The work of a pharmaceutical scientist requires precision, attention to detail and is of vital importance to the safety of products and ultimately patients. This section features insights from experienced scientists who’ve worked extensively in microbiological analysis, developing tests, methods and standards that help establish a foundation for the production…
In this edition of our ‘Guide to’ series, learn how these leading companies’ services and expertise can help you test your pharma/ biopharma products and medical devices.
The Italian Biochemical Institute, Comecer, and Particle Measuring Systems share expertise to develop and manufacture a safer intravenous solution...
This article covers the analytical criteria that apply to Bacterial Endotoxin Testing (BET) using Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) or recombinant Horseshoe crab Factor C (rFC) for the bioactivity determination of endotoxin in aqueous solutions, such as pharmaceuticals and medical device extracts. It explains the importance of these criteria for accurate…

Following the patent of the "Espresso" innovative infusion device, the Italian Biochemical Institute (IBI) "Lorenzini" commissioned Comecer to construct a new isolated filling line.
Rapid microbiological methods (RMM) continue to gain acceptance within our industry and a number of companies have already realised significant gains in detection sensitivity, automation, throughput, time-to-result and return on investment (ROI) when they have replaced their classical methods with these alternative technologies.
The Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) species are a group of gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that have been shown in recent years to be of concern for patients, and thus for manufacturers of drugs and products that contribute to patient health...
Large-scale downstream processing of viruses for clinical applications poses challenges different from those for many other biotherapeutics...
