Sterility testing system Sterisart® NF

for the pharmaceutical industryportable

The International Pharmacopeia requires that each batch of products sold as sterile articles must be tested and certified for sterility prior to their sale and distribution. Therefore, sterility testing is part of the validation process as well as of routine release testing. For these dedicated tests, trained personnel, a regulated environment and high-quality materials that provide adequate and reliable sterility test data are absolutely essential. The comprehensive Sterisart® solution for sterility testing, which consists of hardware and single-use components as well as training and other related services, exactly meets all these requirements. Sterisart® NF consumables are single-use units that constitute closed systems for performing sterility tests on open or closed containers. The Sterisart® NF System 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.
