Sterility Testing

Sterility Testing – Aseptic Integrity Verification

To safeguard research integrity, particularly in applications involving injection, cell culture, or sensitive in vivo models, all applicable products undergo stringent sterility testing. We utilize USP-compliant microbial culture techniques to assess for bacterial and fungal contamination. This testing protocol includes aerobic and anaerobic incubation in multiple nutrient-rich media over a 14-day observation period, with continuous monitoring for microbial growth.

Bioburden testing is a microbiological examination to determine the number of viable microorganisms (such as bacteria, yeast, and fungi) present on a product, raw material, or surface before sterilization. It is a critical quality control measure in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, biotechnology, and food production to ensure compliance with regulatory standards and product safety. Bioburden testing helps assess contamination levels, monitor manufacturing processes, and validate sterilization methods by identifying and quantifying microbial load before final sterilization. The results are typically expressed as colony-forming units (CFU) per unit of material tested.
