# Microbiological Services

Comprehensive microbiological testing for patient safety

QbD Group provides expert microbiological testing and validation services to ensure the purity and safety of your raw materials and finished products.

## 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.
