CHEMUNEX - WORLDWIDE LEADER IN CYTOMETRY APPLIED TO MICROORGANISMS DETECTION
Rapid Methods
CHEMUNEX Technology
• Process water
Numerous validation studies in the US and Europe show that provides results equivalent to that of the plate-count method, but in a much shorter time frame. This advantage can be used to very
efficiently address important situations such as a) Fast characterization of water systems, b) Surveillance of biofilm formation, c) Water-system trend monitoring.
• TVC Bioburden
• Anti-microbial Effectiveness Testing (AET) has a very large measuring range. For general use, there is a linearity between 1 and 10E 5 cells per membrane for bacteria 1 and 10E 4 for fungi. Thus, the need for multiple dilutions is ramatically reduced, thereby minimizing errors and saving time and money. It also helps develop better quality products and tests many more different formulas.
• OOS / Failure investigations
• Disinfectant efficacy, Immediate Cleaning validation
• In-process sample testing
• Final product release
• Specific tests for: E coli, coliforms, Cryptosporidium, Giardia
• Beverages (beer, wine) spoilers detection
• Applications in progress:
• Biological indicators
• Sterility testing
• Cell cultures processes (scale-up & downstream)
eliminates the delay in acquiring results of in-process sampling and reduce the turn-around time of a contaminated run. Allows proactive control procedures and reduction in production cycle times for the scale-up and downstream processes.
Protocol provides consistent sensitivity even in the presence of up to 10 E6 animal cells.
Adding value throughout the manufacturing process:
