These guidelines provide minimum requirements that the manufacturer must meet to ensure that their products are consistently of high quality, from batch to batch, for their intended use. The rules governing each industry may vary materially; however, the main purpose of GMP is always to prevent harm to the end user. Additional principles include ensuring that the final product is free of contamination, that it is consistent in its production, that its production has been well documented, that the staff is well trained, and that the product has been tested for quality more than just at the end of the stage. GMP is generally provided through the efficient use of the quality management system (HI). Because the FDA requires very specific GMP requirements that differ from those of the EU and other countries, drugs approved or synthesized without U.S. FDA certification cannot be legally sold in the U.S., along with advanced agricultural practices, best laboratory practices and best clinical practices, controlled by regulators in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Europe, China, India and other countries. High-level production practices provide guidance on production, testing and quality assurance to ensure that the product is safe for human consumption or use. Many countries have enacted laws that require manufacturers to follow GMP procedures and create their own GMP guidelines that comply with their legislation. All guidelines follow several basic principles: production facilities must maintain a clean and hygienic production area. Manufacturing plants must maintain controlled environmental conditions in order to prevent cross-contamination from adulterers and that may make the product unsafe for human consumption or use. Manufacturing processes must be clearly defined and monitored. All critical processes are reviewed to ensure consistency and compliance with specifications. Manufacturing processes must be monitored, monitored, any changes in the process must be evaluated. Changes affecting the quality of the drug are checked as needed. Instructions and procedures should be written in clear and unambiguous language using best documentation practices. Operators should be trained to carry out and document procedures. Entries must be made manually or electronically during production, which indicate that all the steps required by certain procedures and instructions have actually been taken and that the quantity and quality of food or medicine as expected. Deviations must be investigated and documented. Production records (including distribution) that track the full history of the party should be kept in an understandable and accessible manner. Any distribution of products should minimize any risk to their quality. There should be a recall system for any batch from sale or delivery. Complaints about market products should be examined, the causes of quality defects examined and appropriate measures taken against defective products and the prevention of recurrence. It is recommended to work in the field of production in order to protect the health of consumers and patients, as well as the production of quality products. In the United States, food or medicine can be considered falsified if it has passed all specification tests, but is found to be manufactured at a facility or condition that violates or does not comply with current good production guidelines. GMP guidelines are not prescriptive instructions on how to produce products. They are a number of general principles that must be observed during production. When a company creates its quality program and production process, there can be many ways in which it can meet GMP requirements. The company is responsible for determining the most efficient and efficient quality process that meets both business needs and regulatory requirements. The guidelines of GMP are used in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under Section 21 of the CFR. The rules use the phrase Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) to describe these guidelines. In theory, the courts can verify that a product is falsified, even if there are no specific regulatory requirements that have been violated until the process has been performed in accordance with industry standards. However, since June 2007, a different set of CGMP requirements has been applied to all food additive manufacturers, with additional support recommendations issued in 2010. In addition, in the U.S., medical device manufacturers must follow so-called quality system rules that are intentionally harmonized with ISO requirements, not necessarily more than 100 countries, mainly in developing countries. The European Union's GMP (EU-GMP) applies similar requirements to WHO GMP, as does the FDA version in the United States. Similar GMP are used in other countries: Australia, Canada, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, the Philippines, Vietnam and other countries have highly developed/complex GMP requirements. In the United Kingdom, the Medicines Act (1968) covers most aspects of GMP's so-called Orange Guide, which is so called because of the color of its cover; It is officially known as the Rules and Guide for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Distributors. Since the publication in 1999 of GMP for active pharmaceutical ingredients by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), GMP has now been used in countries and trade groups that have signed ICH (EU, Japan and the US) and are applied in other countries (e.g. Australia, Canada, Singapore) that adopt ICH guidelines for the production and testing of active raw materials. GMP checks within the European Union are carried out by national regulators. GMP inspections are carried out in Canada by the Health and Food Products Inspectorate; United Kingdom-based Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA); Republic of Korea (South Korea) ministry of food and drug safety (MFDS); In Australia, the Therapeutic Goods Authority (TGA); Bangladesh, the Directorate-General for Narcotics (DGDA); [18]; Drug Control Board (MCC); Brazil,000,000 (ANVISA) in Brazil; in India, the State Food and Drug Administration (FDA), reporting to the Central Organization for Drug Standards; Pakistan,000,000,000,000, Pakistan; Nigeria's NAFDAK; and similar national organizations around the world. Each inspection conducts regular GMP inspections to ensure the safe and proper production of medicines. In addition, many countries conduct preliminary checks (PAIs) to meet GMP requirements before approving a new marketing drug. CGMP inspections of regulators (including the FDA in the U.S. and regulators in many European countries) are authorized to conduct unannounced inspections, although some are scheduled. Regular internal FDA inspections are generally unannounced but must be conducted in accordance with the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act (21 USCS No. 374), which requires them to be performed at a reasonable time. The courts have ruled that every time a firm is open for business is a reasonable time to check. Other Best Practices Others good practices, along the same path as GMP, exist: Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), (GAP), Agriculture and Pastoralism Good Clinical Practice (GCP), for hospitals and clinicians conducting clinical trials of new drugs in the human body Good practice distribution (GDP) concerns guidelines for the proper distribution of drugs for human use. My Laboratory Practice (GLP), for laboratories conducting non-clinical research (toxicological and pharmacological research on animals) Good Pharmaceutical Practice (GVP), for the safety of manufactured drugs Good Regulatory Practice (GRP), for the management of regulatory obligations, procedures and documentation Collectively, these and other requirements for good practice are called GxP requirements, all of which follow similar philosophies. Other examples include good practice leadership, and best tissue practices.

  • Fundamental Food Microbiology
    Food Microbiology 12/10/2018 Fundamental Food Microbiology Objectives 1. Identify the basic types of microbes. 2. Describe the typical bacterial growth pattern, and explain important factors affecting microbial growth. 3. Describe basic mechanisms and indications of microbial food spoilage. 4. Describe how certain microbes are used in food preservation. 5. List important pathogens of concern in meat and poultry products. 6. Describe sources of microbes in meat and poultry products. 7. Explain fundamental methods of controlling microbial contamination of meat and poultry. Introduction Microbiology is a specialized area of biology dealing with organisms too small to be seen without sufficient magnification. Microbiologists study bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses, including their interactions with humans, animals, plants, and the environment. While viruses are not a living organisms like bacteria, fungi, and parasites, they are studied by microbiologists; therefore, we will use the term microbe (any microscopic entity that exhibits the properties of life) to collectively refer to any of these biologically active and microscopic entities. In addition, there is an infectious agent responsible for numerous neurodegenerative diseases found in animals and humans known as “prions”, which will be covered in this module. Food microbiology is specifically concerned with the desirable and undesirable effects microbes can have on the quality and safety of food products. In this section, we will briefly survey the importance of microbes in food, as well as prions. We will have an overview of some the fundamental microbiological concepts and consider how microbes are involved in food spoilage, food preservation, and foodborne illness We will conclude by considering the sources of microbes and prions and the l ways in which both may be controlled in food processing environments.

  • The Danger Zone Temperatures • Explain the Significance of the Time/Temperature Rule in Relation to Foodborne Illness
    Chapter 5: Danger Zone Ahead Learning Objectives After completing this chapter, you will be able to: • Define the terms ‘potentially hazardous’ and ‘non-hazardous’ food • Describe the factors that support the growth of disease causing microorganisms • Describe the danger zone temperatures • Explain the significance of the time/temperature rule in relation to foodborne illness Chapter 5: Danger Zone Ahead Chapter 5: Danger Zone Ahead The material in this chapter will provide an overview of the general factors that contribute to foodborne illness. It answers the broad question of how to prevent the bad bugs from flourishing. Cream Pies Get the Cold Shoulder Heidi is very interested in expanding her business and her pie line because of the growing demand. She has never had a problem with any of her products, but one of the other vendors at the market mentioned that pumpkin, meringue and cream pies aren’t allowed at the market. Heidi decides to meet with the market manager and the public health inspector to discuss the rules and regulations. The manager confirms that these pies aren’t allowed at the market for food safety reasons and that Heidi should talk to the public health inspector for details. The public health inspector informs Heidi that pumpkin, meringue and cream pies are potentially hazardous foods. These are foods that will support the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. Heidi is told that this regional health authority does not allow these foods to be produced in a home kitchen; to produce her pies she will need to use a permitted facility and handle them carefully.

  • Biological Hazards
    Food Handler Solutions LLC School Food Handler Study Guide First Edition - Chapter 2 FoodHandlerSolutions.com / SchoolFoodHandler.com Chapter 2 Biological Hazards Pathogens are the biggest threat to food safety. They are small, living microorganisms that can only be seen through a microscope. There are four types of pathogens: • Bacteria • Viruses • Parasites • Fungi Bacteria Some characteristics of bacteria: • Reproduces rapidly under unfavorable conditions. • Can double and multiply every twenty minutes. • Is carried by food, water, soil, humans or insects. • Bacteria are a small-living, single celled organism that can survive freezing temperatures. • Some form spores. • Some can spoil food; others cause illness. • Some produce toxins. Remember - Bacteria growth is best controlled by preventing Time & Temperature abuse. Page 8 of 49 ©Food Handler Solutions LLC 2017 Controlling Time & Temperature One key principle in preventing the growth and potential negative effects of bacteria in food service is proper control of time and temperature. Time management is important to food safety because the longer food is left out after it is prepared, the greater the chances are of it becoming contaminated. One of the most important tools needed to manage and control temperature is a food thermometer. Keys to Remember – • Food cannot be in the temperature danger zone (TDZ) for more than four hours. • Make calibrated thermometers available. • Remove only as much food from storage as necessary. • FAT TOM There are 6 conditions in which pathogens need to grow, they are: FAT TOM Food Time Acidity Oxygen Temperature Moisture Understanding how pathogens grow is important in order for you to help keep foodborne illnesses from occurring.

  • LESSON 2 What Are the Hazards to Safe Food?
    LESSON 2 What Are the Hazards to Safe Food? GOAL To understand the three types of food hazards and how to keep them out of foods. OBJECTIVES • To identify the three categories of food hazards and describe how to prevent them from entering foods. • To describe the characteristics of microorganisms that are relevant to serving safe food. • To identify the elements needed for bacterial growth. • To describe time/temperature control for safety food (TCS), also previously known as potentially hazardous foods (PHF), that require time and temperature control for safety. TEACHER Lesson 2 covers BACKGROUND 1. Food hazards: physical, chemical, biological 2. Characteristics of microorganisms INFORMATION 3. Microorganisms in food 4. Bacterial growth requirements (FAT TOM) 5. Vegetative cells vs. spore-forming cells 6. Time/Temperature Control for Safety foods (TCS) Approximate time to teach lesson: 50–60 min. Definitions Danger Zone—The temperature range in which bacteria grow well, an important concept in food safety. Both the Idaho Food Code and FDA Food Code recognize the Danger Zone as 41°F–135°F. (Note that the range 40°F–140°F is often used in consumer food-safety publications, because this range is easier to remember.) FAT TOM—A common food industry acronym to aid in remembering the elements associated with bacterial growth or its prevention: food, acid (inhibits growth), temperature, time, oxygen (needs are variable), and moisture. pH (potential of Hydrogen)—A measure of acidity or alkalinity. A pH of 7 is neutral; less than 7 is acidic; more than 7 is alkaline. Time/Temperature Control for Safety Food (TCS)— A food that requires time/temperature control for safety to limit pathogenic microorganism growth or toxin formation defined in theIdaho Food Code Section 1.201.10 [B].

  • Servsafe Study Guide
    ServSafe Study Guide Providing Safe Food As a foodservice manager, you have responsibilities to your operation, staff, and customers. The best way to meet those responsibilities is to keep the food you serve safe. A foodborne illness is a disease transmitted to people by food. An illness is considered an outbreak when two or more people have the same symptoms after eating the same food. Three types of contaminants threaten food safety. They are: biological, chemical, and physical. Of these, biological contaminants, such as pathogens, pose the greatest danger. Food handlers who do not follow the correct procedures can also threaten the safety of food. They can do this when they fail to cook food enough and when they hold it at incorrect temperatures. Food handlers can also cause an illness when they use contaminated equipment and when they practice poor personal hygiene. Food has been time-temperature abused when it has stayed too long at temperatures that are good for the growth of pathogens. Pathogens can be transferred from one surface or food to another. This is called cross-contamination. Pathogens can also be spread to food if equipment has not been cleaned and sanitized correctly between uses. Pathogens grow well in TCS food1. To prevent this growth, this food needs time and temperature control. Some groups are at a higher risk of getting sick from unsafe food. They include preschool-age children; the elderly; people with cancer or on chemotherapy; people with HIV/AIDS; transplant recipients; and people on certain medications. Important prevention measures for keeping food safe are: controlling time and temperature; preventing cross-contamination; practicing good personal hygiene; purchasing from approved, reputable suppliers; and cleaning and sanitizing items correctly.
