ISO EN 17141 & ISO 14968 Overview

A new standard for Pharmaceutical Cleanrooms ISO/EN 17141Cleanrooms and associated controlled environmentsBiocontamination control, was approved in August 2020 and brought into effect in April 2021.

This webinar looks at the requirements of the new standard for Microbiological monitoring and control and how it harmonizes with ISO 14698 parts 1 & 2.

We review the instrumentation validation needs to meet both standards and discuss what aspects are different between the two.
