| dc.description.abstract | As the world develops and populations
expand, new diseases arise at an exponential rate.
This research is based on employing new
modifications to NPS (Nuclear Pharmacy Services)
Laboratory at Cardinal Health, Inc. (Guaynabo,
Puerto Rico) in order to provide facilities with the
necessary enhancements to comply and provide
quality products to clients and patients in the
island. The primary purpose of this project is to
increase the facilities capabilities in management
of radioactive materials used for patient’s medical
solutions, increasing the cleanroom compliance
under federal regulations, reducing costs in the
process and provide a high-quality product without
compromising safety. Current federal regulations
require pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical
manufacturers to follow a specific quantity of
particles in their cleanroom process stated as ISO 7
or 8 cleanroom standards. The actual project
development plan is to bring this facility into these
standards no later than December, 1st 2019.
