Pharmaceutical Hazard Identification for Biological Agents

Following concerns of potential product contamination during production, our ChemRisk team was asked by various pharmaceutical and life sciences industry companies to conduct hazard identification and characterization for biological agents.

We conducted assessments for occupational exposures during product preparation and packaging tasks and examined potential microbial contamination of pharmaceutical products. Our support included evaluations of the hazards associated with all routes of exposure for the identified biological agents, at the species level, and influences from handling/use of the products and the formulation of the product itself.

Our team successfully aided companies in conducting a screening-level risk assessment based on hazard characterization to determine if a recall was needed or if occupational controls should be designed and implemented.
