Biotechnology is inherently a cross-disciplinary field, including aspects of medical, healthcare, environmental, agricultural, industrial, and biochemical manufacturing. It describes manufacturing and production derived from living organisms. These “large” molecule drug and other produced substances may consist of amino acids, antibodies, nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, tissues, blood, vaccine conjugates, and other similar compounds. Cleaning requirements in the biotechnology industry are similar to those in the pharmaceutical industry. Residues resulting from production of biopharmaceuticals and gene/cell therapy products are often complex mixtures produced during fermentation, cell culture, cell lysis, and cell harvesting. The detergents used must be capable of removing interfering residues that inhibit culture and fermentation growth or cause unacceptable batch-to-batch contamination. Alconox, LLC provides validation support, quality control and regulatory compliance documentation for all of your biotech cleaning needs.
