Master Batch Records

Significantly reduce the time & effort you need to
securely create and distribute MBRs.

An Introduction to Master Batch Records

Required by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, master batch records (MBRs) contain the instruction, recipe or formula, and specific manufacturing process for a particular product. Biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies must generate MBRs, also known as master production records (MPRs) or master manufacturing formulas (MMFs), for each product formulation and batch size.
‍
Typically, MBRs include:

Manufacturing process information
General manufacturing instructions
Equipment cleaning requirements
List of raw materials
Expected yield of each batch
List of abbreviations
Revisions and changes

Why You Need CellPort MBRs

Here’s how CellPort saves you time and effort with digital MBRs.

Generate MBRs in Just Minutes

Quickly populate MBRs from a library of customized protocols, workflows, and assays.

Securely Distribute MBRs

Enable authorized users to access and edit MBRs from any device, with built-in security and encryption protocols to protect your valuable IP.

Upskill New Employees

When it comes time to scale your operations, MBRs simplify the learning curve and make it easy for new technicians to master their workflows.

Electronic Signatures & Approvals

Simply use electronic signatures for approvals with fully verifiable audit trails – compliant to 21 CFR Part 11 / Annex 11 Compliance for electronic signatures.

Update in Real Time With Tracked Changes

Ensure your people are all using the same documents, with complete audit trails of access and modifications when it comes time for compliance reports.
