In recent years, isolation technology has advanced considerably. The technique is being used in the pharmaceutical business to improve the sterility assurance levels of aseptic products, but it is also finding a place in the medical device industry. Isolators can be specially designed and manufactured...
Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs) and Isolators are two examples of containment cabinets frequently used in the pharmaceutical sector. These two tools were developed to protect lab personnel from breathing in hazardous substances and to stop contagious microorganisms from spreading across the workspace. Isolator: The aseptic containment isolator...
Relative humidity and absolute humidity are two different concepts, although they both refer to the amount of water vapor in the air. Let us understand what exactly is Humidity and Relative Humidity. Absolute humidity: The whole mass of water vapor in a volume of air is what...
In health care facilities, a novel low-temperature sterilization technology employs Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) to sanitize reusable metal and nonmetal instruments. Hydrogen peroxide vapor is used as a broad spectrum antimicrobial in the VHP sterilization device. It spreads VHP uniformly throughout the enclosure, making it...
Isolators are important equipment in the pharmaceutical industry since they offer a protective barrier and confinement under aseptic settings. They're made up of a series of physical barriers that employ confinement to provide a confined working area that allows complete variation manipulation without jeopardizing integrity. Positive...
Personnel in pharmaceutical/ chemical manufacturing firms, particularly those who are exposed to a variety of chemicals, require safety while handling hazardous substances. There are a number of chemicals and substances that are extremely dangerous which are referred to as Highly Potent Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (HPAPIs). They have the potential to impact the operators’ health in numerous ways. Containment systems are an effective way for increasing safety and limiting or eliminating personnel exposure to harmful compounds. HPAPIs are classified into control bands (OEB) based on their potency, and occupational exposure limits (OEL) are used as a classification measure. Let's have a look. What exactly is OEL? Controlling exposure to...
