Title: Revision of the Requirements for Live Vaccine Processing | |
Abstract: This rulemaking is being issued to provide options to the existing requirement for processing live vaccines. FDA is amending the regulations due to advances in facility, system, and equipment design, and in sterilization technologies that will allow live vaccine processing to be performed in multiproduct manufacturing areas. We are amending this regulation to permit manufacturers greater flexibility in the use of their buildings and equipment for processing live vaccines when appropriate controls exist and have been demonstrated to be effective in preventing cross contamination of other products and areas. We are taking this action as part of our continuing effort to reduce the burden of unnecessary regulations on industry and to revise outdated regulations without diminishing public health protection. | |
