Anaerobic bacteria

Anaerobic bacteria are organisms that are capable of surviving and growing in an atmosphere of little or no oxygen. Anaerobic bacteria can be further broken down based on their relationship to oxygen: obligate, aerotolerant or facultative anaerobe. They can be found in a variety of environments ranging from soil and water to the bodies of humans and other animals. Many anaerobic bacteria are found normally in the human body; in fact, in the intestines of humans, anaerobic bacteria outnumber aerobic bacteria 1,000 to 1.

NVPC

NVPC Online NVPC: Make= Beckman; Model= Met one 6015P; Capacity= 1CFM SOFTWARE= EnVigil Critical alarm: Critical alarms are those alarms when generated indicate excursion which may impact the product quality. Alarm generated in location where the NVPC probe is in close proximity to the product/ sterile container closure/ product contact path. Location for critical alarms includes grade A location - Filling station, Bunging station, Bunging Hopper station, Portable cart, IOS station, AGV station, Near lyophilizer door open, between lyophilizers (near Lyo) and Lyo LAF (rigid barrier transfer conveyor). Critical alarms include the following- 1. Particle count excursion beyond the acceptance criteria at a particular location. 2. Sensor Failure, Counter Flow Failure, ERROR or SKIPPED message. Ensure and verify the status of counter flow to meet the below set limit- Target Counter flow – 1.0 CFM. Minimum counter flow: ...

Audit and compliance

Audit readiness Reference https://www.fdanews.com/ext/resources/files/The_Food_And_Drug_Letter/2013/Inspection-Readiness-ExecSeries.pdf https://ispe.org/initiatives/regulatory-resources/gmp/audit-checklist# Before start of audit we need to review past audits and note indication of possible problem areas and items, if any ensure that were identified for corrective actions in a previous audit. If not aware about facility learn what products being produced and how it is organised with personal and function. To have systematic audit checklist to be prepared and alongwith notebook it needs to be utilised (notebook required to make detailed entries while audit and checklist is to guide auditor). Atleast three production batches to be selected For thorough analysis to include- a) Traceability of all components or materials used in that batch. b) Documentations of raw materials or components, inprocess and finished goods testing for subject product batches. c) Warehousing and distribution reco...
