A new application note explains how Thermo Scientific Masterflex pumps ensure precise, repeatable and flexible pharmaceutical production.
Besides requiring precise liquid metering, dosing and transfer, virtually all pharmaceutical and biotechnology research, development and production processes require sterility, fluid isolation and zero contamination potential to ensure a high level of process and product security, according to the application note.
The Food and Drug Administration also has significant concerns regarding contamination, including the cross contamination of biotechnology products that could potentially alter the safety, identity, strength, quality or purity of the product.
Validation cleaning processes are required, and these are often time consuming and costly.
Sterile liquid flow is said to be essential in pharmaceutical and bioprocessing applications, which is why Thermo Scientific Masterflex peristaltic pumps are suitable for these demanding processes.
