We are privileged to have Ester Lovsin Barle, Global Head of PSS at Takeda, lead a critical discussion on the alignment of safety limits at the 3rd Annual Cleaning Validation Summit | May 28th – 29th, 2026 | Online Zoom

In the complex landscape of pharmaceutical manufacturing, experts often face a disconnect between limits set for patient safety (cross-contamination) and those set for worker safety (occupational exposure). Ester will provide the scientific clarity needed to bridge this gap.

𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Alignment of Limits for Cross-Over Contamination and Occupational Exposure
• Two Safety Paradigms: A deep dive into how Permitted Daily Exposure (PDE) and Occupational Exposure Limits (OEL) are derived.
• The Divergence Challenge: Understanding why these limits often differ and how to handle significant PDE–OEL mismatches.
• Inspection-Ready Rationale: Practical guidance on articulating the scientific reasoning behind both limit types to regulatory inspectors.
• Risk-Based Integration: Strategies for harmonizing these two distinct safety goals within a single, robust validation framework.

Join us to gain the technical and regulatory confidence required to defend your limit-setting strategies during inspections.
