The Fight Against Viruses: The Importance of Cleanroom Virus Disinfection Validations

Published Date: July 10, 2024

Ensuring that cleanroom virucidal disinfectants adequately inactivate viruses is essential for maintaining sterile work environments and reducing the risk of contamination. This webinar addresses the principles outlined in ASTM and USP methods for surface disinfection and examines their application in cGMP-compliant pharmaceutical-manufacturing settings. Particularly, this webinar discusses the evaluation of disinfectant virucidal efficacy through the application on virus-contaminated coupons comprised of various surface materials representative of cleanroom surfaces.

This webinar is intended for anyone involved in aseptic processing and facility disinfection. It provides valuable insights into virucidal disinfectant validation methods.

What You Will Learn

  • Understanding cGMP Regulations: Gain insights into Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) and their role in regulating quality assurance in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
  • Principles of Virucidal Disinfection: Learn the principles presented in ASTM and USP methods for surface disinfection and how they are applied in a cGMP-compliant setting.
  • Evaluation of Disinfectant Efficacy: Discover how the virucidal efficacy of disinfectants are evaluated using virus-contaminated coupons of various surface materials representative of cleanroom environments.
  • Implementation of Validation Programs: Understand the importance of virus disinfection validation in verifying the effectiveness of disinfectants used in cleaning and sanitation programs.
