This guide outlines some of the important factors to consider when choosing a manual or electronic pipette for PCR and other microbiological analyses.
Learn how to benefit from implementing continuous microbial air monitoring throughout medical device manufacturing and QC processes.
You have to continuously monitor airborne microbes in your Medical Device manufacturing Clean Room environment facilities, yet every time you change your agar plates you face the risk of cross contamination. Using active Sartorius MD8 Airscan® technology you’ll benefit from the security and flexibility of continuous sample collection using just one single gelatine membrane filter. The MD8 Airscan® air sampler eliminates the need to change agar plates and allows your facility to focus on other important manufacturing or quality control process tasks. Our proprietary, USP-approved filter retains even the smallest airborne micro-organisms at the most accurate level possible – practically ruling out false negative results, to provide unrivalled convenient, continuous air monitoring and control.
Opt for total safety and convenience. Future-proof active air monitoring and sampling by Sartorius, allows your lab to be fully prepared for Annex 1 regulations.

When manufacturing medical devices, water is often in direct contact with your product. Therefore, microbiological control of water is essential to ensure that your quality processes comply with regulations. Additionally, the procedures you use to monitor, and control potential contaminants are also crucial for reducing any risks which could impact patient safety.
To help you streamline your workflows and simplify your microbiological testing, take a look at Sartorius’ range of user-friendly consumables and equipment.
Prior to sterilization, bioburden testing to determine the total number of viable microorganisms, or total microbial count on all or part of your medical device’s surface, is one of the most commonly used microbiological tests in the Medical Device industry. As required by industrial standards such as ISO 11737-1, you need to suspend microorganisms in the right liquid, capture them using membrane filtration and then grow them on a culture medium. Thus, using the right products and procedures to determine bioburden is essential and helps you reduce any risks which could impact patient safety.
