Emprove® Evolve For Raw Materials

Used in Early Stages of Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing

 

Early stage manufacturing

The new Emprove® Evolve product line provides fit-for-purpose high-quality raw materials addressing applications in early stages of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical manufacturing such as:

  • upstream processing
  • early downstream processing
  • clean-in-place
  • early synthetic steps in small molecule drug manufacture

Why Emprove® Evolve?

Emprove Evolving Regulations

Evolving regulations of raw materials
used during production process

These critical raw materials have no clearly defined regulatory standards or quality requirements but are coming more and more into regulatory focus.

The Emprove® Evolve product line supports your quality risk assessment with detailed documentation and supply chain transparency and control, helping you to meet developing regulatory requirements for critical raw materials.

How Emprove® Evolve fits into existing categories

The next step in advancing the Emprove® portfolio

The Emprove® Evolve product line takes the next step in advancing the Emprove® portfolio. This new range of products fills the gap between lab-grade and GMP-compliant raw and starting materials. This new category gives you easy access to Emprove® quality, matching the demands of the earliest stages of your manufacturing process by lending GMP elements to non-GMP material.

The high level of characterization and documentation allows you to take more control of the inputs to your manufacturing process, by using high-quality raw materials which are a product of controlled manufacturing and release processes.

Emprove® Evolve

Product line provides detailed and transparent supply chain information and documentation to support risk assessments for critical raw materials used in manufacturing processes.

Emprove® Essential

Product line is designed for moderate risk levels. Best-in-class regulatory support is combined with our high quality standards.

Emprove® Expert

Product line addresses higher risk applications, where the lowest microbiological and endotoxin levels are of utmost importance. These products are documented as being manufactured with low microbio logical and endotoxin levels.

Emprove® API

Product line provides the right quality and regulatory documentation required for active pharmaceutical ingredients. All the products in this line are manufactured in Europe and comply with ICH Q7 requirements.
