In a pharmaceutical sector subject to ever more stringent quality and effectiveness requirements, this project meets the need to optimize the production chain for active vaccine substances. The approach is based on increasing the production efficiency of a specific toxin and on optimizing the chromatography used for purification. The teams work on several aspects: the reengineering of processes including the functional analysis of skids and chromatography columns, as well as the reduction of scale and the troubleshooting of installations.
In addition, the optimization of operations is supported by the validation of cleaning recipes as part of the CIP and the destocking of columns. To ensure a gradual transition to industrial mode, continuously chromatography preparation, column conditioning and resin distribution are carried out, followed by classroom tests, scale-up and finally commissioning with qualification (IQ-OQ tests). This integrated approach guarantees improved performance while complying with regulatory constraints.
The customer is looking for advanced expertise capable of significantly increasing manufacturing efficiency while guaranteeing high quality purification. He involves a reengineering of processes involving a thorough analysis of chromatography equipment and the optimization of operations. The establishment of a destocking and CIP procedure, as well as a controlled transition from the scale of tests to industry, are essential to secure and make the entire vaccine production process reliable.
