While a bioprocessing manufacturer may assume that every single-use system on the market undergoes a similar degree of rigor in its testing, the range and precision of these tests can vary widely between suppliers. Determining the best single-use systems to implement in a given manufacturing operation requires an understanding of both the process specifications and the capabilities of the component.

Integrated single-use freeze-thaw assemblies with reliable component parts have become the primary implementation choice for achieving successful drug substance transfers between manufacturing facilities. Learn how these systems and their components can improve validation times, expenses, and sterilization.

The growing use of single-use technology (SUT) in the biopharmaceutical industry has transformed how drugs are developed and manufactured. Despite the benefits of SUT, there is one critical issue drug companies must address when transitioning to plastic equipment: the presence of extractables and leachables.
