The Significance of GMP Manufacturing
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is an aspect of quality assurance consisting of processes, procedures, and documentation. GMP ensures medicinal products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to their intended use for humans or animals.
A stable and reliable supply of GMP-grade biologics is vitally important to all phases of a product’s lifecycle, including preclinical, phase 1, phase 2, phase 3, and commercial stages.
Keywords: cGMP manufacturing, cGMP production, large-scale production in cGMP facility, biologics manufacturing under cGMP standard, microbial fermentation, bacteria fermentation, yeast fermentation, purification
Application: Biopharmaceutical industry, human medicine, animal medicine, vaccine, recombinant large molecule biologics, biologics, biological reagent
