At the very core of pharmaceutical microbiology is the accurate and reliable detection of microorganisms that would otherwise contaminate the pharmaceutical products manufactured. This demand for more rapid methods for detection and identification will be accompanied by equally important areas such as: environmental monitoring and contamination control strategies, process automation, and discussing updates to meet regulatory requirements.
This year’s conference will explore guidance and regulation including the regulatory expectations on bio-contamination control and insights into the impact of Annex 1 revisions on sterile pharmaceutical product manufacturing. Furthermore, there will be an exploration into microbial detection as well as environmental monitoring and contamination controls.”
For those interested in attending, there is an early bird offer of £200 savings for bookings made by 31st October. Register at www.pharma-microbiology.com/PJPR2
