The suitability of electric versus hydraulic machines for cleanroom production has been hotly debated. Those in favor of electric machines point to the potential for hydraulic fluid to contaminate ...

Microtest Laboratories (Agawam, MA) has increased staffing in an effort to expand its contamination and cleanroom testing services. By assisting manufacturers to identify, assess, and resolve a range ...

Today’s standards define airborne particle monitoring in units of particles per cubic meter (particles/m 3). These standards tend to require sampling an entire cubic meter (1 m 3) to establish an ...

Presently, NEBB is collaborating with the American National Standard Institute (ANSI) to issue a fourth edition of the CPT as an ANSI standard. The environmental requirements for cleanrooms have ...

The heart of cleanroom technology is the High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) and Ultra Low Particulate Air (ULPA) filters that trap particles as small as 0.3 microns with an efficiency of 99.99%.

To guarantee the safety and efficacy of products manufactured in cleanroom environments, organizations such as International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and regulatory bodies such as the ...

In line with the exceptionally high particulate and filmic cleanliness requirements that have to be met for high-tech components in an ever-increasing number of industries, acp systems AG has extended ...

Cleanrooms are one of the most energy intensive facilities per square foot. Most cleanroom airflows are determined by industry-accepted air change rates and airflow velocities. Typically, cleanroom ...

The importance of cleanrooms is currently in the spotlight as the global community awaits a vaccine for Covid-19. Laboratories need controlled environments that are contamination free in order to ...

Despite their frequent interchangeable use, understanding the distinction between validation and qualification is critical in pharmaceutical environments. Validation is a broader concept encompassing ...

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and others, such as EP, JP, and ChP, have developed test techniques to ensure that particle counts are kept to a minimum in intravenous injections (parenteral ...
