Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Core Facility
The Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Core Facility located within the Boston University Medical Center was constructed in 2013 and is now available for use by the broader Boston University research community.
The facility is comprised of three (3) primary spatial components including the actual GMP Lab (237 square feet), Ante Rm. (45 square feet) and the Vestibule (99 square feet). It is a qualified facility for the development and processing of clinical grade stem cells from adult tissues and related materials for clinical trials and for potential therapeutic use. It is also suitable for vector production, material repackaging, and general support. All areas of the production facility have controlled access and are designed and maintained to a high standard of regulatory compliance and environmental quality. The design ensures orderly flow of raw materials, processes, and personnel. Critical facility parameters, critical controls and laboratory equipment are validated and are continuously monitored.
