Zielsetzung

Most tests applied in microbiological QC are described in detail in the different Pharmacopoeias (e.g. Ph.Eur., USP, and JP). These methods are regarded as being validated. Nevertheless, the user has to demonstrate that the sample to be tested does not interfere with the method described in the pharmacopeias. In the end, it is up to you to prove that the official methods function in your environment.

The validation of microbiological test methods for your needs consumes a lot of time, money and manpower. Things can get more complicated if your products interfere with the execution of the test.

The real challenge is to fulfil both, regulatory requirements and at the same time financial targets set by your management.
During this 3-day Live Online Training you develop strategies for a sustainable approach to perform microbiological test procedures in compliance with the regulations. This course will give you clear guidance on how to cope with these tasks besides your routine laboratory work.

The key tool of this seminar will be team work. During interactive sessions you will create procedures for the most common microbial test methods. Our experienced ECA course leaders will moderate the discussions to lead you to practice-oriented Solutions.

After completion of the course you will be able to run microbiological test procedures in a compliant and at the same time efficient manner.

To guarantee optimal conditions for the exchange of opinions and experiences, the number of participants is limited!
This course will provide practical guidance on implementing the harmonized test methods as well as alternative microbiological methods!
 

Zielgruppe

This Live Online Training is designed for microbiologists, managers and supervisors of pharmaceutical microbiological laboratories.

Furthermore, the course will be of interest to personnel from quality control, quality assurance, regulatory affairs and contract laboratories involved in the microbiological aspects of the production and testing of medicinal products.

Technical Requirements

We use WebEx for our live online training courses and webinars. At https://www.gmp-compliance.org/training/online-training-technical-information you will find all the information you need to participate in our trainings and you can check if your system meets the necessary requirements to participate. If the installation of browser extensions is not possible due to your rights in the IT system, please contact your IT department. WebEx is a standard nowadays and the necessary installation is fast and easy.

The presentations will be made available to you prior to the Live Online Training as PDF files. After the event, you will automatically receive your certificate of participation.

Module 4: The Real World - Case Studies and Examples

Trending and Risk Assessment
This session will give you an insight in trending of microbiological data and principles of microbiological risk assessments. It will cover the regulatory background like ICH Q9 and make you familiar with risk identification tools like FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) or FTA (Fault Tree Analysis).

Harmonized Methods for Testing of Non-Sterile Products
The goal in this par tis to encourage the participants to think globally when analyzing microbiology problems. Microbiology problems are subtle and often multifactorial in their origin. We will show you tips and tricks in testing methods and a possibility to discuss the issues of the implementation of the harmonized methods like growth promotion testing, creating an implementation concept and necessary investments.

Environmental Monitoring Set Up and Deviations
This track gives you an understanding on how to set-up an environmental monitoring program based on room classification and risk assessments. The focus will be set on routine monitoring including sample location and frequency, data trending and evaluation. Further laboratory assessment during excursions and manufacturing contaminations will be discussed

Rapid Microbiological Methods – Regulatory Background and Implementation
This part offers additional information and experience in the validation, implementation, and submission of alternative microbiological methods. In an introductory lecture, you will learn more about the expectations of the European and US authorities.
