Product Description

Mycoplasma contamination represents one of the most critical risks in cell culture systems and biopharmaceutical manufacturing, including ATMPs. The European Pharmacopoeia (EP) 2.6.7, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) <77>, and the Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP) 18 G3 require validated test methods capable of detecting both cultivable and non-cultivable mycoplasma.

10CFU® Mycoplasma Standards were specifically developed to meet these regulatory requirements. Manufactured in accordance with EP 2.6.7 (edition 12.2), the standards are non-infectious and safe to handle. After reconstitution, defined quantities of the standard are spiked into the respective product or sample matrix to enable Limit of Detection (LOD) determination and use as an External Positive Control (EPC) with a defined concentration.

Application-Specific Relevance

Mycoplasma salivarium is a human-associated mycoplasma species and part of the normal oral microbiota. It may occur as a contaminant in human cell culture systems. The 10CFU® Mycoplasma salivarium standard is therefore particularly suitable for risk-based validation of NAT-based mycoplasma testing in human cell culture and biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes.
