Advancing Sterility Testing Beyond Traditional Limitations
Sterility testing is a critical microbiological assay performed to confirm that a pharmaceutical product or medical device is free from viable microorganisms. This process is mandated by major global pharmacopeias to ensure product safety. Traditional methods, while reliable, often require a long incubation period. The development of advanced therapeutic products with short shelf lives has accelerated the need for rapid microbial methods (RMMs) and molecular techniques. These modern approaches, including ATP-bioluminescence and cytometry, provide faster, more accurate results, while advanced technologies like machine vision are being developed to automate the process and reduce human error.

What We Can Offer
Membrane Filtration
This methodology is well-suited for filterable products, such as sterile liquids. The process involves passing the product through a size-exclusion membrane capable of retaining microorganisms, which are subsequently cultivated in an appropriate growth medium to facilitate the detection of contamination.
Direct Inoculation
This technique is employed for products that are not readily filterable, including medical devices or viscous materials. It entails the direct addition of the test material into the culture media to enable the observation of microbial growth over the designated incubation period.

FAQs
What if my product has antimicrobial properties?
This is a common and important concern. Our initial suitability test is designed specifically to address this. During this test, we confirm that our media can still support microbial growth even in the presence of your product, preventing false-negative results.
What is the difference between direct inoculation and membrane filtration?
The choice between these two methods depends on your product. Membrane filtration is ideal for large volumes of filterable liquids and is particularly useful for products with inhibitory substances. Direct inoculation is the method of choice for products that are not easily filtered, such as viscous liquids or certain medical devices.
