GMP Training – Microbiology in the Workplace by www.gmpsop.com
Summary
This module provided an introduction to the control and management of
manufacturing of pharmaceutical products.
Key points covered in this module:
Micro-organisms are very adaptable, and are found everywhere.
Micro-organisms need only small amounts of nutrients and moisture to grow,
and they can grow very quickly.
Objectionable organisms should not be present in a product because they can
reduce the product's effectiveness and cause possible harm to consumers.
Although micro-organisms cannot be necessarily eliminated entirely,
manufacturers need to keep micro-organisms at acceptable levels.
To reduce the numbers of micro-organisms in the workplace, there must be
strict controls in place over the manufacturing environment, starting
materials, equipment, pharmaceutical water, the environment, and personal
hygiene.
