Improve Efficiency In Bio-contamination Control And Risk Mitigation
This white paper considers environmental monitoring and contamination control strategies using the benchmark hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) gaseous bio-decontamination process. Using best practice and the latest technology, significant efficiency savings can be identified at different process stages.
Bio-contamination control, monitoring, and improving assurance
Bio-contamination control and monitoring Quality Risk Management (QRM) needs to consider the inefficiencies in microbiological monitoring. The forthcoming revisions to the ISO14698 standard on bio-contamination in cleanrooms and controlled areas and the USP<1116> microbiological control and monitoring of aseptic processing environment chapter, will place more emphasis on ‘contamination rates’.
Without qualification, conventional bio-decontamination processes, typically called sanitization, require significant environmental monitoring to measure the impact on bio-contamination control. Such processes and monitoring strategies, using ‘Alert’ and ‘Action’ levels, are now under review. These reviews are challenging the efficiency to control and detect bio-contamination for contamination risk reduction.
