Virus and TSE Safety made simple All you need to know

It is the aim of this course to enlighten this world between “dead and alive”.

The nature of viruses postulates significant differences to micro-organisms. This uniqueness poses particular challenges to the detection, inactivation and removal of viruses.

All these specifics will be discussed in detail at this education course – in an understandable manner.

Another threat poses TSE (Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy). Numerous studies have been conducted to understand the route of transmission and the causing agents better. Nevertheless, misunderstandings and rumours circulate and cumulate in the statement: “We need a TSE-certificate for our activated charcoal.”

This course will give you a scientifically sound introduction into the field of TSE and the impact on the pharmaceutical Industry.

The current situation has shown us that the development and production of vaccines can also attract enormous public attention. This makes it all the more important, especially when it comes to approval and production under time pressure, that the quality standards of good manufacturing practice are observed.

Virus safety is one of the major concerns in the development and production of biopharmaceuticals and biologics. Huge efforts are undertaken to prevent viral contamination. A series of guidelines was dedicated to that topic exclusively.

For many people who are involved in the development and production of biopharmaceuticals and biologics the world of viruses is a “black box”.
