Tim
Sandle has written an editorial of the special edition of the Journal of GxP Compliance, dedicated to
pharmaceutical microbiology.
This
special edition captures some of the current themes and issues relating to
pharmaceutical microbiology and contamination control, and many of the points
required to develop a control strategy.
While
microbiology plays a role in drug development, through the application of
biotechnology (including the development of anti-infective agents and with the
manufacture of pharmaceutical products), a considerable part of the role of the
pharmaceutical microbiologist is with protecting pharmaceutical and healthcare
products from spoilage by microorganisms and thus protecting patients and
consumers. With both sterile and non-sterile products, the effects can range
from discoloration to the potential for fatality.
