Contamination with microbes, mycoplasma, viruses, and adventitious agents can be a significant problem in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Although contamination can occur from many sources, raw materials are the most significant source of contamination.
Strategies for preventing contamination including upfront testing of materials, barrier disinfection methods, and adhering to best practices in processing and sanitation are explored.
Avoidance of animal-based raw materials, as well as careful sourcing of any materials used, are discussed.
