Selecting Suitable Biological Indicators / For H2O2 Bio-Decontamination · Novák M, Zysk V, Peter S · SKAN
H 2 O 2 Bio-Decontamination Biological Indicator Resistance Characteristics Regulatory Famework Vapor-phase hydrogen peroxide bio-decontamination (H 2 O 2 decontamination) is widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing and plays an important role in modern contamination control strategies. Pharmaceutical isolators, representing the state-of-the-art in aseptic and toxic processing, are required to incorporate integrated and automated bio-decontamination processes in accordance with EU GMP Annex 1 (Manufacture of Sterile Medicinal Products) [ 1 ]. H 2 O 2 is the active agent of choice for its high effectiveness, material compatibility, ease of use, and ability to operate at ambient temperatures. H 2 O 2 decontamination ...

Isolator Aseptic Processing Decontamination Indicators Annex 1 The use of isolators in the manufacture and quality control of sterile medicinal products has been a trend for years and has become even more popular with the entry into force of the current version of Annex 1 of the EC GMP guidelines [ 3 ]. Isolators make a significant contribution to drug safety as they provide effective and efficient protection against contamination. Fully automatic decontamination is the core process of the isolator. This process is therefore expected to be reliable, safe, robust and reproducible at all times. Decontamination can be carried out using various ...
