Date:10/10/2007

AGAWAM, Mass., Oct. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Microtest has announced the availability of a free white paper titled: "Virus Testing for Biological Products: Partnering With a Contract Lab."

In manufacturing biological products, there is risk of virus contamination at many levels, from raw materials to processing. This contamination risk means virus testing is required. A proper testing program is essential to ensure the biological product achieves the fastest time to market. By working with a qualified contract laboratory, the best testing strategy can be executed to assure product safety.

In this white paper, Merribeth Morin, Ph.D, Director of Virology at Microtest, reviews the potential sources of contamination, cell bank characterization (virus safety), virus concerns during manufacturing, and ways to effectively partner with a contract testing laboratory.
