Important Mycoplasma Updates! European Pharmacopoeia Mycoplasma Chapter Update

The newly updated General Chapter 2.6.7. Mycoplasmas, which has just been published in Issue 12.2 of the European Pharmacopoeia and will enter into force on 1 April 2026, has specified exactly the quality requirements for mycoplasma reference standard preparations.

These changes are crucial for ensuring the safety and quality of biopharmaceuticals and advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs).

The section on Nucleic acid amplification techniques (NAT) has been extensively revised to reflect the state of the art in science and technology. A limit of less than 10 is now proposed as the acceptance criterion for the GC/CFU ratio of reference preparations, unless otherwise justified.
