About this ebook

The 75th meeting of the WHO Expert Committee on Biological Standardization was held from 4 to 8 April 2022 by Zoom video conferencing. The meeting was opened on behalf of the Director-General of WHO by Dr Mariângela Batista Galvao Simão, Assistant Director-General, Access to Medicines and Health Products. The Expert Committee on Biological Standardization reviews developments in the field of biological substances used in human medicine, which include vaccines, biotherapeutics, blood products and related substances, and in vitro diagnostic reagents. It coordinates activities leading to: (a) the adoption of WHO guidelines and recommendations for assuring the quality, safety and efficacy of such substances; and (b) the establishment of WHO international standards and other reference materials. The use of international reference materials for designating the activity of biological substances used in prophylaxis or therapy, or for ensuring the reliability of quality control or diagnostic procedures, allows for the comparison of data worldwide. Target audience includes - but is not limited to - regulators, manufacturers, developers of vaccines and other biological products and academia.
