CIP Cleaning Cycle Development Pitfalls and Solutions

In traditional monoclonal antibody (mAb) manufacturing, the first purification process step of crude harvest (obtained from cell culture) is Protein-A Chromatography. This expensive column resin is often under-utilized for clinical or orphan drug products since the chromatography columns are dedicated per product…

Innovative considerations for efficient multi-(product) use of Protein-A columns

In traditional monoclonal antibody (mAb) manufacturing, the first purification process step of crude harvest (obtained from cell culture) is Protein-A Chromatography. This expensive column resin is often under-utilized for clinical or orphan drug products since the chromatography columns are dedicated per product…

Medical Product Excursions from Labeled Storage Conditions

Stability excursions are unintended lapses in the control parameters (such as temperature, relative humidity, and light) which are designed to preserve a product at experimental, manufacturing, shipping, and patient environment conditions. See More…

Cleaning Validation Equipment Grouping

Grouping equipment for cleaning validation is a common practice for reducing execution, resources, and production downtime.  Though regulatory [1] [2] and industry guidelines [3] support the practice and provide guidance, there is a clear requirement for scientific justification.
