Radiation Microbiology in Pharmaceutical Products
Join the iia and Nelson Labs for this webinar discussing microbiology in pharmaceutical products.
📅 Wedensday 12th August, 2026
🕒 10am EDT (7am PDT / 9am CDT / 3pm BST / 4pm CEST)
Microbiological testing on pharmaceutical products can sometimes be confusing, especially when dealing with sterilized components or a terminally sterilized pharmaceutical product or combination product. Standards and test methods are provided by ISO as well as USP/EP and knowing which one to follow and when is not well described in industry documents. In this webinar we will explore the purposes behind the various test methods and approaches, the testing associated with a contamination control strategy, and how to properly combine the ISO and USP/EP test methods in the lifecycle of a pharmaceutical product.
The webinar will include a live Q&A session and will be recorded for later viewing on the iia website and YouTube channel.
