In aseptic pharmaceutical production, undetected airborne particle contamination from tubing systems can jeopardize
sterility assurance and lead to audit failures.EU GMP Annex 1 and ISO 14644-TR21 now require a deeper understanding
and control of particle transport risks in all types of installations, including traditional legacy systems, isolators,
and RABS-based filling machines.
Our Solution: 3-Step Particle Loss Measurement Study
A comprehensive, standards-aligned service that evaluates and mitigates the risk of particle loss from tubing transport systems.
Step 1: Criticality Assessment
We assess your installed tubing layout to identify the most particle-sensitive and high-risk configurations, considering all the variables that can impact the transportation.
Step 2: Measurement Campaign
On-site or laboratory-based testing to measure the impact of tubing configuration on the reliability of your clean room airborne particulate environmental data.
Step 3: Sterility Assurance Risk Assessment
Expert analysis of findings with full documentation, helping you assess potential impact on your aseptic process, defining appropriate alert and action limits to meet regulatory expectations.
Service now available in EMEA, US, Brazil, Japan, and Taiwan.
