Eppendorf's epMotion® GxP solution includes
an automated pipetting system, epBlue
TM GxP software and certificates, plus
dedicated certification and validation services (like IQ/OQ and user
trainings). Automation increases the speed and accuracy of liquid handling and
now the new epMotion GxP cuts the time required to validate these processes and
comply to European and US
government requirements.
For biomedical and pharmaceutical
companies, as well as related contract research organisations working in a
regulated environment, validating and qualifying their pipetting processes
according to the requirements of 21 CFR parts 11, 58, 211 and 820, GLP, GMP and
GCP can be very time-consuming and labor-intensive. By developing epBlue GxP in
accordance with GAMP® 5, Eppendorf has taken care of the major part of the
required system validation and qualification, leaving users more time to focus
on validating their application.
The new software module provides a
comprehensive range of powerful features, such as multi-level access control
which requires a valid user ID and password in order to create or run an
application or access any electronic record. The epBlue GxP system enables
creation of digitally signed PDF documents and automatically generates and
protects an audit trail comprising time-stamped records of all user activities.
Exportable digital certificates can easily be checked on external computers.
Optional support for ID tracking is also available for use with
barcode-labelled labware or ID lists.
According to Carsten Buhlmann, PhD,
International Product Manager Automated Liquid Handling, Eppendorf AG, ‘The new
epMotion GxP solution is a complete package that consists of the epMotion
automated pipetting hardware, as well as software, services and certificates. It
was developed according to the GAMP 5 standard and I am convinced that its high
quality and rich features will help our pharmaceutical customers to
significantly shorten the timeline of their process validation and
qualification.'
