Contamination Control (CCS) and Now?
With the contamination control strategy, potential risks of product contamination are continuously identified, assessed and controlled. To assess the risks, a contamination control strategy is a prerequisite for the process and system. This includes a process for assessing, detecting and eliminating contamination risks from potential foreign sources of endotoxins/pyrogens, particles and microbiological contaminants. It also supports [...]
