EDQM FAQs
- Microbiology texts (e.g. chapters 2.6.1, 2.6.12, 2.6.13, 2.7.2, monograph 0008): can microbial strains other than those that are cited in the Ph. Eur. be used?
- Other questions on general chapters 2.6.12, 2.6.13, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3 and 5.1.4
- The name of a micro-organism in the Ph. Eur. does not match the ones used by culture collections (e.g. ATCC 6633 is named Bacillus subtilis in the Ph. Eur. and Bacillus spizizenii on the ATCC website). Which strain should I use?
