Investigating Microbial Contaminations in Pharmacies
A Step by Step Training
erience in understanding, detecting, preventing, testing, removing and controlling microbial biofilms
Investigating the potential route of contamination in pharmacies and compounded pharmaceuticals may not
always be a simple and straight forward task. Contamination can come from different sources: environment,
personnel; materials and more. To investigate contamination in pharmacies, contamination control and
monitoring procedures should be adequate to conduct a thorough investigation and identify the probable or
root cause(s). Learn how to conduct an investigation when contamination occurs and also understand why
adequate contamination control procedures help in a meaningful and conclusive investigation.
