Contamination Control and Sterility Assurance for Compounding Facilities

Description:

This week, Stacey is joined by Dr. Ross Caputo, President Eagle Analytical. Stacey and Dr. Caputo discuss contamination control. Contamination control is very important for medical devices, pharmaceuticals, preparations, tissue materials and other materials that claim to be sterile or free from viable microorganisms. Any contamination that does occur must be thoroughly investigated, which often is time consuming, causing potential delays in production, and this is true for compounding pharmacies of all types.

Dr. Caputo has over 30 years of experience in the FDA-regulated pharmaceutical industry on sterilization research and aseptic processing focusing on process optimization and control. He has authored more than 50 publications and owns 15 patents, all related to infection control, sterilization processes and the production of sterile product. Throughout his career, Dr. Caputo has been an active participant and committee member of organizations such as AAMI/ISO and PDA, which are charged with the development of standards for the regulated marketplace. He has a PhD in Microbiological Physiology and Immunology from Miami University.
