C186230Our gamma-irradiated and triple-bagged settle plates for monitoring of isolators and critical clean rooms
Versatile settle plates for isolators and clean rooms
ICR/ICRplus and Envirocheck® Settle Plates are produced under aseptic conditions. They are gamma-irradiated and triple bagged, making them ideal for active air monitoring with our MAS Air Samplers for passive microbial air sampling in isolators and clean rooms. Furthermore, they are suitable for personnel monitoring to detect microbial contamination e.g. in a 5-finger-print.
Our settle plates contain either Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA), Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) or a non-animal, vegetable peptone media for minimal risk of BSE/TSE contamination, all prepared in accordance with the recommendations of the European and US pharmacopeias. They are available with neutralizers of a wide range of disinfectants and β-lactam antibiotics. Neutralizers such as lecithin (L), tween 80 (T), histidine (H) and sodium thiosulfate (Th) are able to inactivate residues of disinfectants, of which a wide range are used the world over for sanitization purposes. Plates supplemented with β-lactamases, such as cephalosporinase (cephase) or penicillinase (penase), can inactivate a wide spectrum of β-lactam antibiotics.
Secure and reliable:
- Data matrix barcode on each plate: Paperless and reliable identification of individual plates
- Transparent, H2O2-impermeable, triple-barrier packaging: Safe transportation in clean rooms (ISO 5) and isolators
- Produced in clean rooms and gamma-irradiated in their final packaging: Minimal risk of contamination
Convenient:
- Room temperature stability: Storable at site of use
- Long shelf life: Fewer incoming goods controls and QC tests
- High filling volume: Allows longer exposure and incubation periods
- SDA in pink plates: TSA and SDA plates easily distinguishable
Flexible:
Suitable for personnel monitoring, passive air monitoring or as disposables for active air monitoring using our MAS Air Samplers
