Endotoxin Control and Clearance in BiomanufacturingMilliporeSigma
In this webinar, you will learn:
Sources of endotoxin contamination
Contamination control strategy
Endotoxin removal strategies
Detailed description:
Endotoxin, a lipopolysaccharide (LPS), is a type of pyrogen and is a component of the exterior cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. To ensure safety on patient’s endotoxin content in the drug should always be controlled. In a biological processing it may emanate from facility, utility, raw materials, process, and personnel. In this webinar we discuss the regulatory norms, strategies for prevention & removal of endotoxin to ensure that the final drug product is safe.

A Novel approach for quantitative real-time particle analysis of lentiviral v...Myriade
Lentiviral vectors are efficient vehicles for stable gene transfer in dividing and non-dividing cells. They tend to be increasingly used as a powerful tool to introduce genes into cells ex vivo, for instance in CAR-T cell therapies.
During manufacturing and production of lentiviral vectors, relevant quality control is necessary to allow batch release (1). Among standard quality control methods that can be used, quantification of lentiviral vector particles – or physical titer – is one of the most important. Up to now, this characterization can be achieved either indirectly with p24 protein quantification or with physical methods like Tunable Resistive Pulse Sensing (TRPS) for example, both methods implying prior preparation of samples (lysis, dilution or filtration). These two methods thus show important limitations as they cannot accurately reflect the true nature of the product, in addition to being relatively time-consuming (2).
Myriade, a French company created in 2017, is developing Videodrop, a new optical technique performing real-time, user-friendly, and label-free measurement of lentiviral vector physical titer. This method, based on full-field interferometry (3), was tested on various lentiviral vector samples: in a context of Drug Product (DP) release as well as in-process controls.
We compared three lentiviral physical titration methods on aratinga.bio productions: p24 ELISA, qNano and Videodrop – Myriade instrument. The correlation between Videodrop analysis and the other two methods appeared to be robust, with high R² values. These results suggest that Myriade technology is relevant for DP release as well as in-process controls, offering the ability to be a tool for continuous improvement. It is an easy-touse and fast alternative to the standard more complex and time-consuming physical titration methods.
Taking place on the 20th and 21st January 2016, London UK, Pharmaceutical Microbiology event will provide essential insights in to the latest advancements in practice and technology, developments in regulation and harmonisation of international practice and evolving methods and the latest technology.
Join us as we explore key issues in data review and analysis, contamination control strategies, strategies for low endotoxin recovery and best practice in sterile and non-sterile manufacture. Gain an in-depth insight into endotoxin testing, validation and LER. Understand the threats posed by VBNCs and how to detect them.

Biopharmaceutical Process Development: Good Manufacturing Practices or Breaki...Chris Willmott
These are the slides from a presentation "Biopharmaceutical Process Development: Good Manufacturing Practices or Breaking Bad?" given by Andrew Warr as part of the 2015 Careers After Biological Sciences programme at the University of Leicester UK
Recombinant Factor C (rFC) is a recombinantly manufactured protein used for the detection of bacterial endotoxins. They can be cloned and expressed in yeast, Escherichia coli and mammalian cells. It is an alternative to the Limulus amebocytelysate (LAL) which is widely used for the detection of lipopolysaccharides (LPS). However, rFC is a better alternative as it is animal free, simpler, more specific and sensitive as it strongly binds to the LPS and detect their presence.

53. The general objective of predicting internal quality, based
on degradation rate of external attributes, will be reached in
3 steps:
OBJECTIVES
The First step is to obtain degradation patterns of
quality parameters of fresh-cut products during time.
The second step is aimed to calculate the
mathematical relationships between external and
internal parameters showing significant kinetics.
The Third step will be aimed to validate the
prediction models

conclusion may be drawn:
accurate modeling in different ambient conditions is
possible both on external and internal quality attribute
degradation rate dependence from time of storage
differs among different attributes
indication of internal quality based on appearence
is possible and will allow to give more information to
consumer and producers on the best timing of
consumption
