Sterility Testing Sterisart® Universal Pump Sterisart® Universal Pump International pharmacopeias require the complete sterility of pharmaceutical products that are injected into the blood stream or that otherwise enter the body below the skin surface. Manufacturer of such products are required to supply proof of sterility of the final product batch. The Sterisart® Universal Pump is available in two versions: the basic version 16419 and the upgraded version 16420 with display and user software.
Sterisart® NF – Sterility Test Disposables Sterility Testing Sterisart® NF – Sterility Test Disposables Sterisart® NF is a completely closed system for the sterility testing of pharmaceutical products. It is based on the membrane filter method, however it eliminates the procedure of manipulating the filters. By this means the main risk of a secondary contamination and false positive results is eliminated. A peristaltic pump transfers the sample into the filtration units.

Air Monitoring Air Sampler MD8 airscan® Air Sampler for Critical Applications The system consists of the MD8 airscan® air sampler and disposable gelatine filter units. The system is routinely used for the quantitative detection of air-borne organisms, mainly at filling lines in sterile areas of class A (classification according to “EU Guide for GMP”), isolators, or blow-fill-seal machines.
Air Sampler Air Monitoring AirPort MD8 AirPort MD8 is the air sampler for the pharmaceutical industry, the biotechnology, the food and beverage industry, for hospitals’ environmental care and for work safety. AirPort MD8 Offers the Following Benefits – Battery-powered and portable for universal use. – Battery power level clearly indicated so constant performance during sampling is guaranteed. – Ergonomic design and easy to clean.
Air Monitoring Gelatine Membrane Filters Gelatine Membrane Filters Gelatine filters in conjunction with the MD8 air samplers (gelatine filter method) are used for collecting of airborne microbes and viruses. Gelatine filter disposables are individually packed, pre-sterilized and ready-to-connect units, each consisting of a gelatine membrane filter and a holder.
BACTair™ Air Monitoring BACTair™ – Big Impact Microbiological Air Monitoring by the Impaction Method A new developed system for sampling airborne organisms that allows impaction onto culture media plates, where the plates function directly as collection heads. This means that the collection properties are integrated right into the culture media plates. Metal sieve plates or metal collection heads with slots, which have to be sterilized for routine samplings on a regular basis, are eliminated.
Air Monitoring Accessories Accessories For the MD8 Air Samplers Calibration Unit The user can calibrate the MD8 airscan® and AirPort MD8 directly on the job by means of the calibration unit*. This is absolutely necessary above all within the scope of validation steps, for which it is important that the shown air flow rate (desired value at the MD8) corresponds to the actual air amount (actual value at the calibration device).
Accessories Air Monitoring Tubing and Connectors Set If the disposable gelatine filter unit is not placed directly at the MD8 airscan®, but at a distance from it, a flexible plastic hose (2 m or 5 m), a connectors set and, if not available, a holder (tripod 16970, double socket 16976, clamp 17037) are necessary for the connection between filter and MD8 airscan®.
Air Monitoring Accessories Accessories for Isolator Application For the monitoring of isolators with MD8 airscan®, we recommend using stainless steel accessories such as adapters 17016 (DN25) or 17030 (DN30), clamps 17033 for sanitary flanges, connector 17659---001 or 17659---003 (for tri clamp) and the filter holder for gelatine filter disposables 17801---001 as well as a Sartofluor® capsule with PTFE membrane and sanitary flange inlet and outlet, for sterile air filtration inserted between the MD8
Accessories Air Monitoring Gelatine Membrane Filter, 80 mm, Sterile, Pack of 50 for Use with Stack Gelatine membrane filters are still available as 80 mm filter discs, suitable for the filter holder supplied with the MD8 airscan®. The filters are sterile-supplied, but the filter holders have to be sterilized by dry heat (180°C, 2h) and then equipped with the filters under sterile conditions. For performing routine check-ups a stack is recommended.
