We are very excited to announce this year's PMF Fall Forum: Current Trends in Nonsterile and Aseptic Manufacturing. Leading industry experts will present and discuss topics relating to current regulatory, compendial and enforcement trends in Quality Control Microbiology.

While nonsterile and aseptic manufacturing are regarded as two distinctly different sectors of our industry, many aspects of QC Microbiology are relevant to both. Burkholderia cepacia complex challenges, disinfectant efficacy testing, contamination prevention, and proper laboratory training are just a few areas that bridge these sectors. Effectively understanding these central principles, including regulatory expectations and implementing systems to support them, is the key to success.

“Current Trends in Nonsterile and Aseptic Manufacturing” will provide an excellent opportunity for participants to acquire the knowledge and learn the skills necessary for meeting these challenges.
