Cleaned Vials for TOC and other Critical Applications

Available Container Processing

Silanization & Siliconisation & Particle Cleaning

Process

Common Applications

Description

Silanization

Proteins, assays of blood serum, pharmacological assays of therapeutic drugs Silanizing neutralizes active sites in glassware. This prevents the sample to react with active sites in the glass.

Siliconization

Proteins, assays of blood serum, pharmacological assays of therapeutic drugs Siliconized products are physically coated with medical-grade silicone emulsion to prevent the sample to react with active sites in the glass.

Particle Cleaning

Numerous applications in the pharmaceutical, biotech, medical, semiconductor industries, and anywhere cleanrooms or controlled environments are utilized 17 MOhm reines, electronics-grade water fi ltered to sub-micron levels is heated and used for the particulate cleaning process.

TOC & VOC certifi edt & USP Purifi ed Water and WFI Rinses

Process

Common Applications

Description

TOC

Validation of water systems and cleaning validations, TOC trace analyisis Total organic carbon (TOC) is a measure of the amount of carbon covalently bound in organic molecules in a water sample.

VOC

Trace analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOC) Cleaning following EPA Protocol „B“

USP Purified Water
and WFI Rinses

Clean Room Applications in the pharmaceutical, biotech, medical, and semiconductor industries Für den Nachweis kleinster TOC Gehalte beispielsweise in Pharmawässern: Reinigung mit Reinstwasser und WFI Spülung für pyrogenfreie oder sterile Behältnisse.

Sterilization

Process

common Applications

Description

Steam Sterilization

Injectable or parenteral drugs, lyophilization, final packaging prior to drug delivery, stability studies Sterilization involving steam, heat and pressure to destroy all viable forms of life, including bacterial spores to an acceptable sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6

Irradiation

Injectable or parenteral drugs, lyophilization, final packaging prior to drug delivery, stability studies, clinical trials A radiation dose suffi cient to destroy all viable forms of life including bacterial spores, is applied to an acceptable sterility level (SAL). A typical radiation dose is 25-40 kGy, which produces the required SAL of 10-6

Sterile Foil-Wrap

Injectable or parenteral drugs, stability studies, clinical trials Sterilization via a validated dry-heat, foil-wrap method. Stoppers and seals are sterilized via autoclave methods.

Depyrogenation
validated 3-log
reduction

Injectable or parenteral drugs, Lyophilization, final packaging prior to drug delivery, stability studies, clinical trial Depyrogenation destroys and removes Endotoxines. Endotoxines are fever producing substances which are found in the cell wall of certain bacteria. Depyrogenated products have reduced endotoxin content by at least 99.9%.

RNase & DNase

molecular biology, in the pharmaceutical medical research fields Ribonuclease, is a nuclease that catalyzes the hydrolysis of RNA into smaller components. RNase A for example is one of the hardiest enzymes in common laboratory usage. Nucleases are omnipresent contaminates in the laboratory environment today, and while bacterial contamination is still a major concern for molecular biologists in the pharmaceutical and medical research fi elds, sterilization methods such as gamma irradiation and autoclaving do not remove RNase, DNase and pyrogens.
