Two-Volume Biopharmaceutical Publication Available at PDA Bookstore

By Destin LeBlanc
The two volumes Cleaning Validation: Practical Solutions for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing by Destin LeBlanc contains a complete, modified and updated collection of his Cleaning Memos. Volume 1 originally published from 2000-2004 and Volume 2 published from January 2005 through December 2008. In both volumes, each Cleaning Memo is presented as a chapter, with the chapters then organized by common topics rather than chronologically. The benefit to having both volumes at hand, aside from gaining full insight into ten years of subject-matter expert advice, is its accessibility by common subject.

Recent Warning Letters Review for Preparation of an Aseptic Processing Inspection
By Jeanne Moldenhauer
The focus of this book is to provide a way to prepare for a FDA inspection of an aseptic facility by reviewing Warning Letters recently issued to pharmaceutical companies. The number of Warning Letters issued by FDA has been rising in recent years. The FDA publishes Warning Letters in its Electronic Reading Room available on its website. The problem is that it takes time to download and review the documents and look at them cohesively for their impact on your operation. This book has taken these observations and segregated them according to the applicable GMP requirements, making them easier to look at in a systematic fashion.
