Innovations in Pharmaceutical Microbiology

LONDON - Sept. 19, 2014 - PRLog -- Innovations can be found in all areas of pharmaceutical microbiology but best practice, strategy and efficiency has become a necessity in order to excel in the prevention, detection and management of microorganisms.

Pharmaceutical Microbiology 2015 will ask the questions: What are the best approaches in contamination control? Where does microbiological risk assessment interact with HACCP? How do we develop and manage the sterilisation and validation process? When can we use a scoring system to avoid unnecessary microbiological testing? What are the latest approaches to preventing biofilms?

Attendees will hear case study driven presentations from an array of market leaders such as GSK, Genzyme, Abbott, MedImmune and AstraZeneca, discussing the benefits and challenges of rapid methods, risk assessments, objectionable organisms, plus much more.

Oliver Chancel, Sterility and Aspeptic Process Assurance Expert from Merial Sas, who will be chairing the event said:

“I have attended the last 2 Microbiology conference and have appreciated that outstanding experts from the pharmaceutical industry, and international academia presented various microbiological aspects with a series of case studies to focus on the practical knowledge and the “know how” which can be directly applied on daily business.  I look forward to attending the new conference in London as it is likely to provide an incredible forum for open discussions with speakers and attendants.”

Key Speakers for the 4th annual show will include:
• Olivier Chancel, Sterility and Aseptic Process Assurance Expert, Merial Sas – CONFERENCE CHAIRMAN
• Ruth Daniels, Head of MSAT, Microbiology, Genzyme
