Essential Manufacturing Skills - Principles and Usage of Isolators

This two-day, hands-on laboratory course trains delegates to maintain aseptic conditions and ensure safe, compliant operation of isolators in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Participants gain practical skills and theoretical knowledge to support isolator-based processes while meeting regulatory requirements.

Learning objectives:

• Follow health and safety protocols, including PPE, decontamination, and emergency procedures.
• Understand isolator design, layout, and components (air handling, glove ports, pass-through chambers).
• Apply aseptic techniques to prevent contamination.
• Understand decontamination methods such as hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) decontamination.
• Operate environmental control systems and maintain sterility during material transfers.
• Apply GxP principles, explore industry best practices, and evaluate the importance of continuous improvement in aseptic techniques.

Who should attend:

Ideal for newcomers to biopharmaceutical or advanced therapies labs, and professionals in regulated environments seeking isolator expertise. Suitable for manufacturing operators, technicians, QA/QC specialists, production managers, biotechnologists, scientists, and regulatory personnel.
