USP <797> requires that the number of viable microorganisms in the air environment of the compounding area be evaluated. This test is to be performed at least semi-annually for all risk levels. More frequent sampling will provide earlier detection of loss of environmental control failures. Hardy Diagnostics offers an easy way of accomplishing this using an impact air sampler. Cat.no.5500

Fingertip Sampling
Surface sampling is required on a periodic basis for each laminar air flow workbench or barrier isolator.
Personnel monitoring (glove fingertips) is required to be done at initial competency evaluation and no less than three times before being allowed to compound sterile preparations. Re-evaluation is required at each media fill challenge test.
Surface&FingerTipSamplingHardy Diagnostics offers a fast and convenient way to monitor the microbial bioburden of the work surface of your laminar air flow workbench. Contact agar plates are simply pressed onto the surface or glove fingertips, incubated, and colonies are counted.

Solar-Cult® Flex-Paddle Surface Monitoring SlideThe surface monitoring slide is simply a two sid-ded agar coated plastic paddle which is attached to the cap of a shatter-proof, optically clear, colorless plastic vial. To sample a surface, remove the cap/paddle assembly from the vial. Hold-ing cap in hand, press the surface of the paddle gently onto the surface to be tested (paddle will flex to right angles with a gentle pushing motion). Incubate at 30 -35 ºC. After 48 - 72 hours, count the number of colonies.Tryptic Soy Agar w/Lecithin and Tween® 80 on both sides of the paddle,10/pk .............................................................................FP400
EnviroTrans™ Swab KitNeutralizing Saline(Pre-moistened, ready-to-use)A ready-to-use swab and tube pre-filled with 5 mls of neutralizing saline. Simply remove the cap, which is attached to the Dacron® swab. Collect your sample by swabbing the surface, recap, and send to the lab. The solution can be inoculated onto a Tryptic Soy Agar petri plate (Cat. no. G60). Incubate at 30 -35 ºC. After 48 - 72 hours, count the number of colonies. Excellent for detection or enumeration of microorganisms from environmental surfaces.5ml, 20/box ............................................................... SRK55

Drug solutions can be tested for sterility by direct inoculation into Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) and Fluid Thioglycollate according to procedures found in <USP 71>.
By incubating for 14 days, a lack of fungal, aerobic and anaerobic bacterial contamination can be proven.
Please consult <USP 71> (Table II) to verify proper inoculum size and media volume.
Below are some some types of media that can be used for direct inoculation.
Custom containers and fill volumes are available upon request.

The preferred method for sterility testing is the membrane filter method using a closed sterility test system, such as the new disposable sterility test system Sterisart®. The Sterisart® Universal pump is a peri-staltic pump made of stainless steel, and is equipped with appropriate features for attaching a Sterisart® sterility test canister.
After the Sterisart® canisters have been po-sitioned and the sterility test system spike/needle has been inserted into the sample container, the pump is started. The pump draws liquid from the sample container into the specially designed double tubing,
Sterisart®UniversalPumpSterilityTestingSystemdistributing the liquid equally to both Sterisart® canisters. Similarly, the pump then flushes the Sterisart® canisters with rinse liquid such as Fluid A, (Cat. no. U109). Finally, the pump fills the two Sterisart® canisters with culture media, such as Tryptic Soy Broth 100ml, (Cat. no. U46), or Fluid Thioglycollate Medium 100ml, (Cat. no. U47). The Sterisart® canisters are then incubated for 14 days.
