Aseptic Production: An Introduction for Life Scientists - Paperback

by C. F. Harrison (Author)

The future of medicine is biological: targeted antibodies, engineered proteins, reprogrammed cells. And behind every one of these cutting-edge therapies is a sterile, high-stakes production environment

The aseptic processing line.

These lines are complex. Highly regulated. Full of jargon. And if you want a job in biologics, whether in manufacturing, QA, or validation, you must understand how they work.

This book breaks it down for newcomers:

• How aseptic lines work in practice
• How sterility is maintained (and how it can fail)
• The meaning behind the mountain of technical terms

Whether you're preparing for an interview or trying to survive your first weeks on the job, this is the plain-language guide you wish you'd had.

Essential reading for anyone serious about biologics manufacturing.

Author Biography

Originally from the sunny shores of Australia, CF Harrison currently works in the beer-filled heart of Bavaria. With a PhD in biochemistry, he has worked in drug discovery, regulatory affairs, and as a scientific consultant for biotech companies. After being asked many, many times just what people meant with all this talk about media fill studies (and why anyone should care), he decided to answer these questions once and for all - and thus this introductory book was born.
