Mitigating the Risk of Implementing Single-Use Assemblies for Final Sterile Filling

Sue Walker, Global Product Manager - Final Fill
ACHEMA Praxis Forum
Hall 4.2, Brillianz
Friday, 19 June, 12:30

Presentation Details:
There are significant benefits to single use technologies that have been well documented. However there are also risks associated with their use that can include product loss and questions around sterility assurance and product safety. These risks are magnified in the filling operation because of its closeness to the final product in its final form. But there are ways to mitigate these risks during final fill assembly design, manufacture, and use.
By creating a sound initial design where the supplier and the end user work together to customize the design – fit for intended use will not be based solely upon verification after installation but it will be designed into each assembly. And by systematically evaluating the assembly manufacture and quality control processes, risks can be highlighted and properly addressed. Topics such as gamma irradiation qualification, shipping validation, particulates, and integrity testing as they relate to assembly manufacture will be covered. And the final section of the presentation will discuss the key aspects for successful assembly implementation by the end user at the point of use.

Ensuring Scalable Performance of Single-Use Bioreactors from Bench to Clinical Scale

Presenter:
Session:
Where:
When: |
Janice Lloyd Simler, Ph.D., Global Sr. Product Manager
ACHEMA Facette
Hall 3, Facette Room
Wednesday, 17 June, 16:40
More information
Presentation Details:
Bioreactor process set points and parameters developed in bench-top bioreactors are used in the large production scale bioreactors. It is therefore crucial that the set points developed at the small scale can be easily transferred to large scale. This presentation will highlight how a detailed understanding of the performance design space of each sized bioreactor can enable the selection of process parameters at each scale that will enable scalable performance across the platform.
