Validated Gamma Radiated Serum Products

SAFC Biosciences has established process parameters and controls for maximum inactivation of microbial contaminants while maintaining product integrity through its validation of the gamma irradiation process for serum products. The validation study evaluated package configurations, process temperatures, radiation dose response and radiation distribution within the packages. The study was conducted at both pilot scale (100 mL samples) and production scale (500 mL, 1000 mL, 3 L and 4 L samples).
