Environmental water & monitoring

Environmental water samples, anaerobic bacteria counts

Environmental water samples, aerobic bacterial count only with extended incubation for fungal

Environmental water samples, aerobic bacterial plate count

Aerobic bacterial & fungal counts

Environmental monitoring, swab samples, aerobic bacteria & fungi

Environments such as clean rooms and other work areas often require air quality analysis. The active air sampling provides a qualitative results which can be used for comparisons to indicate changes in the environment. Sample collection with cartridges permits the collection of organisms which will survive transportation on a non-growth supporting medium.

Environmental monitoring, swab samples, fungal only

Surface monitoring is conducted to determine the microbial bioburden of surfaces within the manufacturing area as well as on equipment and product contact surfaces. The amount and frequency of samples monitored is dependent on the sponsor.

Testing methods can provide qualitative or quantitative information. The accuracy of the sampling is impacted by the collection and handling of samples, therefore sufficient training is essential to an effective sampling and testing program.

Environmental monitoring, swab samples, aerobic bacteria only

Cassette passive air samplers permit the collection of organisms which will survive transportation on a non-growth supporting medium. Passive monitoring techniques typically yield lower counts than active sampling methods. The organisms recovered from passive monitoring, are generally the most important and those which potentially present the greatest sterilization difficulties. Sampling intervals will be determined by the sponsor and provide a basis for trend analysis.
