INSIGHTS ON QUALITY CONTROL

QUALITY CONTROL SOLUTIONS

  • Combination Powder and Fume Hood with HEPA filtration and house exhaust connection designed to process liquid and powder substances. Fume Hood designed to house stir plate and analytical balance. It features cup sink; air, water, and gas fittings; and alarm for monitoring and maintaining recommended face velocity of 75 LFPM. Fume and Powder Hoods separated by sliding door to eliminate cross-contamination during processing. Powder Hood uses front airfoils and rear plenums to maintain laminar airflow across the work surface, which is vented through a HEPA filtration system to house exhaust.

  • Traditional bioburden testing (or microbial limit testing) takes several days to grow visible colonies of microorganisms, so identifying these and initiating corrective action takes longer. The Milliflex® Quantum system quantitatively detects microbial contamination in filterable samples in as little as a third of the time it takes with traditional plate-based monitoring methods. The Milliflex® Quantum system is based on fluorescent staining of all viable microorganisms, making emerging microcolonies visible to the system when they’re still too small to be seen with the naked eye. After rapid detection, the colonies can be reincubated to grow into visible colonies and be identified by any method—an approach that cleverly combines rapid and compendial bioburden testing.

  • Explore end-to-end solutions and products suited to your organization, whether for research and discovery or planning for scale to commercial manufacturing.

  • As the only major supplier worldwide, we offer all three media to test for Mycoplasma according to EP 2.6.7 and USP 63 as both broth and agar plates. These ready-to-use Friis, Frey, and Hayflick culture media help to make the cumbersome compendial procedures of testing cell cultures, raw materials, intermediates, and final products for mycoplasmas easier.

  • Upperton offers analytical services designed to support the development, monitoring, and quality control testing of pharmaceutical products.
