The Testing of Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices for Sterility in an Aseptic Isolator / Lehmann and Bässler • Testing · Lehmann F, Bässler H · SKAN AG, Allschwil (Switzerland)
Can a decontaminable isolator with cleanroom class A (ISO 5) in the work chamber, which is located in a class C (ISO 7) cleanroom, replace the sterile test in a manned cleanroom class A (ISO 5)? According to the available knowledge, this question can be answered with “yes” in full. The isolator offers a sterile test environment and largely prevents secondary contamination of the test items by the operator.

Robotics in a sterile Pharma Isolator / Sterile Discharging of large Aluminum Cans into a Process Vessel – Case Study · Bässler H, Lehmann F, Brom V · SKAN AG, Allschwil (Switzerland)
An OEB 3 sterile powder should be transferred from aluminum cans to a compounding vessel in an aseptic environment. To create the aseptic environment, an isolator with hydrogen peroxide decontamination is selected. The chosen solution for the transfer process is the use of 2 cleanroom robots to handle the cans. A motorized split butterfly valve is used as the valve for closing the compounding vessel. The entire system is assigned to one product, so cross-contamination is not to be expected .

Robot Pharmaceutical application Isolator technology H 2 O 2 decontamination Cleanliness Sterile filling Sterile production In the world of pharmaceuticals, there is a vital role for robots to play in the complicated processes of research and development, production, and packaging. Robots can be used in many applications in the sterile production of drugs from basic production steps to sterile filling and closing operations in the fill-finish suite. Robots are always applicable when production takes place in unfavourable working conditions like absence of oxygen or humidity in the process. These tasks will then be performed in an aseptic isolator. This article ...
