Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) — A system of quality assurance ensuring that products are consistently produced and controlled according to defined standards, the highest tier of peptide manufacturing.
What Is GMP?
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is the regulatory framework ensuring pharmaceutical products (including peptides) are consistently produced and controlled to quality standards. GMP covers facilities, equipment, personnel, documentation, raw materials, production, quality control, and release testing. All clinical-grade peptides must be manufactured under GMP.
Key Requirements
- Cleanroom: ISO Class 7-8 for peptide synthesis, Class 5 for sterile fill
- Documentation: Batch records, SOPs, deviations, CAPA, change control
- Testing: Identity (MS), purity (HPLC), potency (bioassay), endotoxin, sterility
