One portfolio, unlimited reliability: Complete safety with environmental monitoring solutions Safety is a big issue in today s industries. It s a time issue. A cost issue. And most important, it s a risk issue. What s required to cover all these issues is a vision. A vision for a safer future. That s why we offer you a complete solution to help you stay on the safe side: with high-quality products, with excellent service, and with professional expertise, EMD Millipore provides more safety than meets the eye. Let s take a closer look: most contaminants are invisible to the naked eye. Although single micro-organisms (as well as those carried on particles) are fairly small, they pose a severe threat to the safety of products and brands: every year, several hundred products have to be recalled, resulting in financial and image losses.
At EMD Millipore, we believe that the solution to this problem is not only simple but also cost-efficient: with our complete portfolio for environmental monitoring, covering particle counting, active and passive air monitoring as well as surface and personnel monitoring solutions. The relatively low costs of monitoring result in improved quality and increased safety and in the reduction of overall expenses. To keep expenses low in the long term, EMD Millipore offers a comprehensive range of high-quality monitoring and testing solutions that help you keep your facilities safe, from less critical to highly critical clean rooms and isolators. With our monitoring solutions you can conveniently check surfaces, equipment, and air quality for contaminants getting answers rapidly and reliably. Since our products have been developed in close cooperation with users and authorities, they are tailored to the customers needs and follow international guidelines for critical and controlled environments, such as EU cgmp, USP, or FDA Aseptic Guidance. What s more: as a one-stop supplier, we also offer a wide range of services, including IQ/OQ maintenance, calibration, product validation, and application. 5
Small details make the big safety picture: Particle counting solutions Particle counting is a critical component of clean room monitoring programs. Particle counter data are needed to detect contaminants in the air and to determine the cleanliness of air in controlled environments, such as those found in the pharmaceutical or sensitive food industries, which have to comply with ISO 14644, GMP and FS9E. Our APC instruments meet JIS B 9921:1997 and ISO 21501 standards for performance, counting efficiency, and calibration. They are available in either stainless steel or plastic with stainless steel components. The APC SmartTouch and the APC ErgoTouch Pro 2 are ideally suited for disinfection and fulfill the most stringent hygiene standards.

Solutions that spring into action so you can take action: Active air monitoring solutions As regulations and standards for pharmaceutical products are increasing, the need for effective air sampling methods is on the rise too. After all, the quality of production environments is directly linked to the finished products quality. That s why customers demand highly precise and reliable active air sampling solutions. With active air monitoring products by EMD Millipore you can be sure of getting the most accurate sample solutions available. Our easy to use monitoring systems fully comply with all international standards and regulations ensuring reproducible and reliable results.

Keeping a vigilant eye on safety all the time: Passive air monitoring solutions Passive viable air monitoring with the help of settle plates is a useful complement to active air sampling methods. Settle plates allow for a semi-quantitative determination of microbial contaminations in the air. They are also suitable for personnel monitoring (e.g., gloves). And that s not all: settle plates are easy to use, efficient, and enable continuous monitoring during production processes. Since they are fairly small, they can also be used conveniently in confined spaces. Passive air sampling solutions by EMD Millipore are perfectly tailored to the requirements of different applications. Our triple-bagged and gamma-irradiated ICR Settle Plates are designed for the use in critical clean rooms and isolators. For less critical clean rooms and other controlled environments, we offer single-bagged LI Settle Plates. All of our products have one thing in common: they meet all international standards and regulations, including EU cgmp, FDA Aseptic Guide, and USP 34 <1116>. 14
Transparent safety: ICR Settle Plates (for isolators and critical clean rooms) data matrix barcode on each plate: paperless and secure identification of single plates transparent, H 2 O 2 -impermeable triple-sleeve packaging: safe transportation in clean rooms (ISO 5) and isolators produced in clean rooms, gamma-irradiated in final packaging: minimizes risk of contamination storage at room temperature: storable at site of use long shelf life: fewer incoming goods controls high filling volume: allows prolonged exposition and incubation SDA in pink plates: easily distinguishes between TSA and SDA usable for personnel monitoring or as disposables for active air monitoring with MAS Air Samplers Practical safety: LI Settle Plates (for less critical clean rooms) data matrix barcode on each plate: paperless and secure identification of single plates produced in clean room: low risk of contamination storage at room temperature: storable at site of use long shelf life: fewer incoming goods controls high filling volume: allows prolonged exposition and incubation usable for personnel monitoring or as disposables for active air monitoring with MAS Air Samplers Take a closer look at the safe side: ordering information for our passive air monitoring products can be found on p. 28. 15
On the surface of safety, but not superficial: Personnel and surface monitoring solutions The health and pharmaceutical industry takes a lot of measures to keep production plants clean and minimize the risk of contamination. A crucial tool to monitor the efficiency of these measures is the sampling of surfaces and personnel with proven methods like easy to use contact plates, contact slides, or swabs. EMD Millipore offers a wide range of swabs and contact plates adapted to clean room requirements and different surface types. For highly critical areas such as clean rooms (ISO 5) or isolators, we provide triple-bagged, gamma-irradiated ICR and ICR plus Contact Plates and Contact Slides. They are ideally complemented by our ICR Swabs for difficult-to-access locations like tubing or filling needles. The safe choice for less critical environments are our single-bagged, non-irradiated RT and RT plus Contact Plates and Slides. Since every country has its own standards, our surface and personnel monitoring solutions meet them all to keep your products safe worldwide. 16
