Objectives
You get to know the principles of using continuous E-Beam systems for the surface decontamination of tubs
You become familiar with the critical process steps that have to be clarified within the framework of the qualification and validation of these systems
In case studies you can share your colleagues’ first-hand experiences
In workshops / live demos at SKAN you can discuss the pros and cons of using these systems with experts from industry, authority and science
Background
With regard to sterile finished medicinal products, above all high-priced products in the field of biotechnology, there is a clear trend towards ready-to-use syringes.
The ready-to-use syringes in tubs are sterilised at the syringe manufacturer’s site and distributed in bags. Still, when they are introduced into the isolator, certain microbiological risks arise for the filling process in the isolator. For this reason, after having been unwrapped, the tub is introduced into the isolator through an E-Beam tunnel in order to ensure the outer sterilisation of the tub.
Here, apart from the high costs caused by acquisition, operation and maintenance, the use of E-Beam systems also requires careful consideration of the consequences the radiation has for the packaging material and its environment.
Target Group
The event is made for decision makers in pharmaceutical companies and their suppliers who use the E-Beam technology in connection with pre-filled syringes or who intend to do so in the future.
The number of participants is limited. Please understand that, for competitive reasons, not all firms can register their employees for this event.
