Microbiological safety

March 01, 2010   admin   No comments

UK-based manufacturer of aseptically filled blood plasma products and part of NHSBT, Bio Products Laboratory (BPL) has further enhanced its environmental monitoring programme by installing bespoke remote SAS microbial air samplers from Cherwell Laboratories. Since plasma products are administered intravenously, their microbiological safety is critical. Therefore, as part of an upgrade to BPL’s Grade A aseptic filling suite,
where glove ports have been installed to minimise any risk of operator contamination and ensuing downtime, remote air
sampling was necessitated for environmental monitoring. The SAS Super Isolator is part of the SAS family of microbial air sampling solutions. Its sampling head,
located separately within the area to be remotely monitored, is stainless steel and compatible with disinfection systems such as Vaporised Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP).
