The Sterisart^® Septum Enables Reliable Sampling from a Closed System Sterility Testing Unit

In this study, we evaluated the Sterisart^® closed system sterility testing device, with a septum, for the recurrent sterile extraction of samples.

The results demonstrate that even after more than 100 repeated septum sampling events, which far exceed any foreseeable sampling requirements, the septum remains intact and the growth media contained in these canisters remains sterile.

The Sterisart^® septum allows easy inoculation and sampling and enables the coupling of the conventional closed system sterility testing with rapid detection methods.
