The Redipor Barrier Pack range from Cherwell Laboratories has been developed and validated in response to the increasing use of vaporised hydrogen peroxide (VHP) decontamination methods.
This line of gas-impermeable packaging for the Redipor range of irradiated prepared microbiological media ensures that there is no risk of false negatives following the use of VHP for sterilising isolators, clean rooms and pharmaceutical processing equipment.
All Barrier Pack products feature a clear gas-impermeable layer, guaranteed to prevent the ingress of decontamination gases such as VHP, while allowing easy examination of the contents before use in the critical environment.
Packs are easy to open with gloved hands, and each pack has a convenient hole punched outside the seal, allowing hanging for decontamination purposes.
The performance of the Barrier Pack line of gas-impermeable packaging has been tested and fully validated using sensitive hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detectors capable of detecting <1ppm.
After repeated decontamination cycles using peak concentrations of >570ppm, absolutely no H2O2 was detected inside the Redipor Barrier Pack, guaranteeing the viability of the Redipor prepared media sealed within it.
Every batch of Redipor plates is tested for growth promotion after irradiation, with the results fully detailed on an accompanying certificate.
The Redipor range of irradiated prepared media can be used for a wide variety of applications within the pharmaceutical production environment, such as environmental monitoring, sterility testing, operator validation and quality control.
In addition to plates, Cherwell's Redipor media is available in a number of formats, including ampoules, injection bottles, vials and infusion bags, all designed to be conveniently stored at room temperature.
