A compressed gas risk assessment is an important component of your Contamination Control Strategy (CCS) and should start with determining the involvement and final use of the process gases in pharmaceutical industries. The utility of compressed gas is a process system. Compressed gas is an integral part of many processes and can be used in many phases of a process. The design and use of compressed gas process systems must be documented, and the criticality of the system must be determined in a GMP environment (e.g. via a risk-based approach). As stated in Annex 1 in the section on utilities, compressed gases and other utility systems should be properly designed, qualified, maintained, and monitored to prevent contaminants from affecting product quality, stability, and/or efficacy.
In the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, ensuring sterility and minimizing microbial contamination are critical for maintaining product quality and safety. Microbial sampling is a key component of environmental monitoring, and understanding the optimal criteria for sampling can significantly impact the effectiveness of sterility assurance programs. Learn about optimal microbial sampling criteria here.
In the pharmaceutical industry, maintaining stringent contamination control is not just a regulatory obligation but a fundamental aspect of ensuring product safety and efficacy. The EU GMP Annex 1 outlines the importance of a Contamination Control Strategy (CCS) for sterile drug products, emphasizing the need for a structured approach to manage risks and maintain compliance. We recently hosted a webinar discussing these strategies in detail. To help navigate this complex field, we’ve compiled a list of frequently asked questions from our experts.
