Planning a facility upgrade without service interruptions– 28-Mar-2013
Catalent decided to undertake a fundamental redesign and improvement in the layout of its facility in Schorndorf to meet the latest standards, including a radical change to the air handling systems. The major project was planned and implemented with minimal disruption to the site's customer base
How to prevent drug shortages yet sustain quality– 25-Mar-2013
The US FDA reported that 251 drugs went into shortage during 2011, of which 73% were sterile injectables. The shortages followed a common pattern: one or more manufacturers temporarily stopped production to address a manufacturing quality problem, most often caused by microbial or particulate contamination. Sterility assurance, especially in facilities that are not fully automated, can be difficult to accomplish, but at the heart of the drug shortage problem is the inability of the market to observe, and therefore, to reward quality
Gas storage with no added pressures– 31-Jan-2013
Hazardous, toxic gases used in semiconductor fabrication are stored in and delivered from high-density media that adsorb gas molecules inside nano-sized pore structures, virtually eliminating accidental gas releases. ATMI’s BrightBlack precision nanoporous carbon has been specifically optimised for pore size and density to achieve the most favourable physical adsorption of these dangerous gas molecules.
Making the grade in filters– 3-Dec-2012
The removal of micro-organisms from fluids by passage through filters is a very complex process and is dependent on interactions relating to the chemistry and surface characteristics of the membrane, the micro-organisms, and the suspending fluid. The selection of a membrane filter for a particular product or process is an important choice and one that requires an assessment of the filter, the chemical nature of the product and the physical demands that will be placed on the filter.
Particulates in parenterals– 3-Dec-2012
Particulate matter is a key indicator of quality for injectable drug products. Test methods are being improved with the intent to find the materials responsible for the particle(s). The desired goal of zero defects is not a workable acceptance criterion for visible particulate matter because of current packaging components and processing capabilities. The value of vision inspection systems for elastomeric primary components is shown to mitigate the risk of particulates in finished parenteral drug products.
