Robust Microbial Recovery After Filtration of Disinfectants Using Microsart® @filter PVDF

Authors: Dr. Nils Jäger, Anna-Lena Weißenborn, Juliane Großmann

Disinfectants are used to minimize microorganisms in critical environments such as pharmaceutical cleanrooms. The rise of microbial resistance against disinfectants poses a serious threat to aseptic processes. Due to high requirements on hygiene in pharmaceutical environments, producers must monitor the bioburden of disinfectants. 

Microbial examination through membrane filtration encounters difficulties when dealing with antimicrobials. Pharmacopeial guidelines recommend dilution of the sample in suitable diluent or the addition of specific neutralizing agents.
