Environmental monitoring plates must provide consistent and robust growth of a wide range of microorganisms to effectively monitor the cleanliness of air, surfaces, and personnel in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. High-quality plates reduce the risk of false positives or negatives, thereby enhancing the reliability of contamination control measures.
Explore our range of high-quality environmental monitoring plates and learn how we can support your environmental monitoring program to ensure accurate and reliable detection of microbial contaminants.
Triple-wrapped plates are best for environmental monitoring in pharmaceutical settings because they provide enhanced sterility assurance. The multiple layers of packaging protect the plates from contamination during transport, storage, and handling, ensuring they remain sterile until use.
Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA) is ideal for environmental monitoring in pharmaceutical settings because it supports the growth of a wide variety of bacteria and fungi, making it versatile for detecting a broad range of contaminants. Its nutrient-rich composition allows for effective recovery and cultivation of microorganisms from air, surfaces, and personnel, providing a comprehensive overview of the cleanliness of the manufacturing environment.
Reduced waste with styrofoam-free shipper packaging
Practical storage temperature (2-25°C) with no refrigeration required
Deeper fill (30g) settling plates to reduce the risk of desiccation
Three protective wraps including a VHP impervious layer
Our cold filterable media reduces preparation time by facilitating quick and easy dissolution at lower temperatures, eliminating the need for the heating and cooling steps often necessary with traditional media. This streamlined process optimizes media preparation, leading to overall time savings in pharmaceutical production.
