Particle Measuring Systems introduced their innovative instrument, the BioLaz™ Real-Time Microbial Monitor for rapid detection of airborne biological organisms in controlled environments. The BioLaz™ Real-Time Microbial Monitor offers immediate notification when biological particles are present and real-time verification of biological activity levels during filling operations. This results in faster batch releases, revolutionizing sterile manufacturing processes.
As process air passes through the system, the BioLaz™ Real-Time Microbial Monitor illuminates particles in the sample. If biological particles are present, the organisms fluoresce and are counted in real-time. This system can easily be integrated into new or existing facility monitoring systems and reduces operator errors inherent when standard growth-media methods are employed.
The BioLaz™ Real-Time Microbial Monitor has been independently tested to meet the rigorous requirements of USP Validation of Alternative Microbial Methods and of EP 5.1.6 Alternative Methods for Control of Microbiological Quality. Additional features include an internal pump, which eliminates the cost and need for an external vacuum system, and a small footprint in a 316L stainless steel enclosure.
