ISO 22442 Viral Inactivation and Removal Compliance Testing

ISO 22442 Viral Inactivation and Removal Compliance Testing

The ISO 22442 standard is pivotal in the pharmaceutical industry as it sets out stringent requirements for ensuring that viral inactivation and removal processes are effective. This testing ensures that any medicinal product, vaccine, or biological substance used in human or veterinary medicine meets regulatory standards to protect public health. Compliance with this standard is not only a legal requirement but also a critical step towards gaining market acceptance.

Our laboratory specializes in providing comprehensive ISO 22442 compliance testing services for pharmaceutical products. We understand the complexities involved in ensuring that viral inactivation and removal processes are robust, reliable, and consistent across different batches of product. Our team of experts uses state-of-the-art equipment to simulate real-world conditions under which these processes occur.

The process begins with a thorough review of the client's existing protocols for viral inactivation and removal. This involves analyzing the chemical agents used, the temperatures applied, and any other factors that could affect the efficacy of the process. Once this initial assessment is complete, we proceed to conduct rigorous testing using various biological indicators. These indicators are designed to mimic the behavior of viruses under specific conditions.

After conducting these tests, our laboratory generates detailed reports outlining the results. These reports include data on the percentage reduction in viral infectivity and any residual virus detected post-process. Our compliance officers then review these reports to ensure they meet the stringent criteria outlined in ISO 22442. If necessary, additional testing may be required before final certification is issued.

Our expertise extends beyond just conducting tests; we also offer advice on best practices for optimizing viral inactivation and removal processes. This includes recommendations on selecting appropriate chemical agents, optimizing temperatures, and ensuring proper equipment calibration. By providing this guidance, we help our clients stay ahead of regulatory changes and maintain a competitive edge.

In addition to our standard testing services, we also offer customized solutions tailored to individual client needs. Whether you require testing for specific products or processes, or need assistance in developing new protocols, our team is here to support you every step of the way. Our commitment to excellence ensures that all of our clients receive top-quality service and reliable results.
