2024 EDQM VIRTUAL TRAINING PROGAMME
This is a great opportunity to learn about Ph. Eur. texts on biologicals, the implementation of pharmacopeial procedures and comparability of alternative procedures, and on microbiology testing, including for bacterial endotoxins. In addition, participants can get a deeper understanding of how texts are developed to offer the flexibility necessary to address complex biological products, discover more about the Ph. Eur. pyrogenicity strategy, aimed at phasing out the rabbit pyrogen test by 2025, and get an overview of the role and correct use of Ph. Eur. reference standards and of their establishment process.
Who should attend? This training programme will be of interest to staff members of national regulatory bodies and scientists involved in the development, manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance and licensing of medicinal products. It is ideal also for new and junior staff members who want to familiarise themselves with the Ph. Eur. in the field of biologicals.
