Sartorius Webinar Addresses Risk Mitigation and Management to Ensure Virus Safety of Biopharmaceuticals
Yorba Linda, Ca (PRWEB) September 30, 2016 -- Patient safety is at the core of biopharmaceutical manufacturing operations. Ensuring virus safety of biopharmaceutical products poses logistical challenges for several reasons including: nature of raw materials, non-homogenous distribution of raw materials, and limitations with virus detection methods. Mitigating any possible risk to ensure virus safety of biopharmaceuticals is extremely reliant on abiding by industry best practices.
In this free webinar from Sartorius, participants will explore the regulatory basics in virus safety assurance, the need for incorporation of multiple orthogonal virus clearance strategies, and design of validation studies. Case studies will be presented throughout the webinar to demonstrate industry best practices. In addition to risk management in downstream operations, the importance of risk mitigation in upstream operations to minimize bioreactor contamination events will be discussed.
As a Regulatory Affairs Certified field market manager, Hazel Aranha, PhD will share from her experience of more than 30 years in the biopharmaceutical industry as the speaker for this webinar.
Aranha is a well-acknowledged expert in the area of virus and prion clearance from biopharmaceuticals. She received a master’s degree in virology from Adelphi University and a doctorate in environmental microbiology from Mississippi State University. She holds Regulatory Affairs Certification for both the US and European Union and has provided consulting services in the US, Europe and Asia.
Industry leader, LabRoots, will be hosting the webinar on November 3, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. PT, 12:00 a.m. ET. Click here to view full details on this webinar and to register for free.
