Aine Brennan, Technical & Regulatory Leader, Aseptic Filling & Microbiologist, Cytiva - Rapid microbiology testing automated readout of culture media
Microbiology in the pharmaceutical industry is used for more than 100 years, however, rapid methods are much more recent.
Several fields are concerned: Research and development, Bioburden, Sterility testing and Environmental monitoring.
Rapid methods represent a large variety of modifications regarding the traditional culture method: composition of the medium (chromogenic), format (liquid, solid, cartridge…), incubation conditions (automated, time, temperature), reading (use of automatic readers).
This presentation will focus on the available methods and trends for automatic readout of culture media, their advantages, and limitations.
