What are microbiological services?

Microbiological services encompass a range of testing and validation methods to assess and maintain the purity and safety of pharmaceutical products and manufacturing environments. These tests ensure compliance with stringent regulatory standards and safeguard the quality of your products. Key services include:

  • Microbial count (TAMC & TYMC): Measuring total aerobic microbial count and total combined yeast and mold count.

  • Pathogen exclusion: Ensuring the absence of specified harmful microorganisms.

  • Preservative efficacy testing (PET): Assessing the effectiveness of antimicrobial preservatives.

  • Microbiological assays: Quantifying antibiotic potency.

  • Endotoxin testing (LAL Test): Detecting bacterial endotoxins.

  • Particulate matter analysis: Measuring visible and subvisible particles.

  • Water analysis: Testing water for pharmaceutical use, including TOC (Total Organic Carbon) and conductivity.

  • Growth promotion testing: Verifying the performance of culture media.

  • Environmental monitoring: Assessing contamination in air, compressed gasses, and surfaces.

  • Validation of microbiological tests: Ensuring accuracy and suitability of microbiological methods.
