Webinar: Minimizing Risk to Maximize Coverage for the Global Supply of Vaccines

This presentation will focus on the use of the advanced aseptic filling techniques utilized in blow/fill/seal technology to enhance the global supply of vaccines through primary container design and manufacturing efficiency.
In this webinar, we will discuss:

  • the details and data on how the principles of BFS dramatically reduce the risk profile and particulate contamination in aseptic filling.
  • information on the container closure and a case study of a model monoclonal antibody in a BFS vial compared to glass.
  • primary container design freedom to help address the needs of vaccine distribution and delivery.
