Conor to Co-Chair and Speak at the Next Generation Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Conference.
Conor Murray, our BioTrak® Real-Time Viable Particle Counter product specialist in Ireland, will present a paper entitled Navigating the Latest GMP Guidelines and Regulatory Compliance, at the Next Generation Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Conference in London on 5th October.
His subjects will include alignment between regulatory guidelines and ISO/CEN standards, the challenges of integrating holistic QRM with respect to the new Annex 1, and ARMM enabling next generation pharmaceutical cleanrooms to support Pharma 4.0, PAT and Real Time Release Testing (RTRT).
Conor firmly believes that Annex 1 will drive the increasing adoption of ARMM technologies, not only in CGT/ATMP, with short shelf-life products, but in wider Pharma and Biopharma applications due to uncertainties and limitations of delayed results, data integrity and the level of manual intervention in traditional sampling-based EM methods. The Annex 1 update introduces a formal requirement to apply QRM and develop a documented contamination control strategy, which is expected to encourage the scientific adoption of new monitoring technologies for predictive quality.
"Annex 1 will challenge us to better understand our manufacturing process and the impact of contamination sources. The BioTrak, with real-time viable airborne particle counting and as a validated Non-Inferior alternative method, is a game changer for root cause analysis and immediate intervention when a contamination event occurs."
Conor Murray.
