Employing an automated, alternative microbiological method (AMM) means water activity could be used as a microbial indicator for bioburden assessment in tablets and capsules, a study suggests.
Melanie Eggers is a Sterilisation Validation Project Support Engineer at Pfizer Belgium. In this webinar, she explains how Pfizer has adopted Enzyme Indicator (EI) technology for its VHP bio-decontamination procedures. She outlines the differences in EIs compared to more traditional Biological Indicators and the way in which Pfizer utilises the…
A study has reported a noninvasive assay for detecting Gram-negative bacteria biofilms that do not disrupt the pattern of bacterial growth.

Discover the extensive panel testing done to evaluate the new, innovative sterility testing platform, Growth Direct® Rapid Sterility.
According to the paper, the control strategy for rapid bioburden testing provides manufacturers with enhanced capabilities for process control.
Research suggests that to prevent common mould growth, low-dose far-UVC light could be applied as a chemical-free addition to manual cleaning of indoor surfaces.
This report is dedicated to exploring some of the latest advances in pharmaceutical environmental monitoring, covering topics from contamination control and cleanroom validation through to emerging technologies for bacterial endotoxin testing.
Monitoring microbial contamination levels at various stages requires focused, independent software with extended controls over microbial management. Digital monitoring of contaminants and their sources helps understand microbial behavior and trends. Thus, a reinforced, data- driven environmental monitoring mechanism is the key to maintaining controlled lab spaces for microbial trend analysis.…
Technology innovations and a stronger focus on developing novel drugs to treat chronic diseases, are key drivers for the global mycoplasma testing market up to the next decade, research states.
