Real-time viable particle counter for pharmaceutical manufacturing

Ensure real-time monitoring of airborne viable particles in aseptic environments with advanced biofluorescent detection, minimizing contamination risks and enhancing process understanding for pharmaceutical manufacturers focused on safety and compliance.

The BioTrak Model 9510-BD from TSI is a cutting-edge viable particle counter designed for continuous, automated monitoring in aseptic environments. Leveraging biofluorescent particle detection, it distinguishes viable from inert particles, ensuring real-time monitoring of vital environments, such as pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical production facilities, with exceptional precision. Particularly beneficial for vaccine manufacturing and sterile product production, it enhances environmental monitoring by reducing the need for aseptic interventions and supporting root cause investigations.

Operating with a 1 CFM (28.3 L/min) sample flow rate, the BioTrak integrates seamlessly into your current facility monitoring systems using the TSIFMS Software for automated data collection and analysis. The system supports compliance with GMP regulations by maintaining data integrity in accordance with 21 CFR Part 11 standards, and is further supported by the ALCOA+ principles in Data Integrity Mode. The standalone capability aids in rapid contamination source identification, room release, and risk assessment, while its stainless steel enclosure and HEPA-filtered exhaust ensure minimal maintenance and robust operation.

Benefits

  • Enhances contamination control by providing real-time viable particle data.
  • Reduces operational risk with continuous, automated environmental monitoring.
  • Simplifies compliance with EU GMP Annex 1 standards for sterile manufacturing.
  • Minimizes manual intervention, fostering safer aseptic processes.
  • Ensures data accuracy and integrity in adherence to regulatory requirements.
