A new algorithm developed by a real-time viable particle counter determines the viability of a particle based on its measured optical properties, improving the detection of microorganisms.

To meet immediate vaccine demand, aseptic manufacturing capacity must increase quickly. This means environmental monitoring programs must adapt rapidly as well. Thoughtful planning can help.

Investigations into viable air excursions are difficult to perform using traditional methods. Discover why a real-time viable particle counter is key to providing process improvement.

GMP compliance requires monitoring microbial contamination levels in cleanrooms and clean spaces. It is important to know the role active air samplers play in this process and parameters for evaluating them.

TSI Incorporated, manufacturer of real-time viable particle counters and airborne particle counters for contamination control monitoring, is pleased to announce enhanced data integrity capabilities for all AeroTrak Portable Airborne Particle Counters, AeroTrak 9306 Handheld Airborne Particle Counter and BioTrak Real-Time Viable Particle Counter.

TSI introduces a new range of AeroTrak®+ Remote Airborne Particle Counters (APCs) for monitoring manufacturing cleanrooms. TSI is so confident about the performance of the new laser technology inside, that all models are covered by an industry-exclusive standard 5 year laser warranty. 

Facility monitoring software with OPC UA client/server functionality makes great business sense. Learn how monitoring leads to reduced waste, improved yield, higher quality, and increased profits.

Real-time viable particle monitoring instruments have been available for over five years. Learn in detail about this technology and how it is used to detect viable particles in real time.

Investigations of airborne viable excursions in cleanrooms using traditional techniques notoriously fail to identify a definitive root cause. No matter how extensive the investigation, due to the limitations of the traditional tools available, luck often plays a large role in actually identifying an elusive "smoking gun".

In aseptic manufacturing, laser induced fluorescence shows great potential to replace growth-based methods in certain manufacturing paradigms — highly automated, near-continuous processes.

Airborne microbial contamination is a serious concern for companies producing medicines and biotech products, and it must be addressed to ensure that products and people are kept safe.

A facility monitoring system is a process monitoring tool that collects data from sensors such as optical particle counters, differential pressure sensors, and temperature probes in realtime.

The BioTrak Particle Counter instantly detects microbial contamination, a vast improvement over century-old culture-based methods. 

Discover a portable particle counter that ensures your classification testing complies with the revised EU GMP Annex 1 with updated limits and the ability to define limits that are no longer specified.

Learn how cleanroom technicians can perform confident, reliable aseptic microbial monitoring in pharmaceutical manufacturing Grade A and B environments with external vacuum systems.

Investigations of airborne viable excursions in cleanrooms using traditional techniques notoriously fail to identify a definitive root cause. What if this information were available in real-time when the contamination event occurred? This video introduces real-time viable particle monitoring and how it can quickly identify the source of a contamination.

The BIOTRAK® Real-Time Viable Pharmaceutical Particle Counter from TSI provides real-time information on microbiological contamination in pharmaceutical cleanrooms.
