Medistri SA Announces its Sixth Sterilization Line
Medistri, a leading provider of contract sterilization & laboratory services for healthcare companies, is excited to announce the expansion of its sterilization capacity by adding a sixth chamber that will arrive Mid-November.
Introduction to Sterility Testing
Sterility testing is required to ensure viable contaminating microorganisms are not evident in a product. This testing is conducted by direct inoculation or membrane filtration methods and is performed in a cleanroom environment.
Medical Device Shelf Life Testing
Medical devices are labeled with an expiration date that is supported by testing shelf-life data. Medical device manufacturers wishing to gather data on the shelf life of their products may subject their devices to long-term stability studies or accelerated aging studies. There are many different endpoints that can be used to assess the shelf life of a medical device, including sterility or package integrity, so it is important that endpoints and test methodology are decided upon before testing is begun.
Elemental and Trace Metal Analysis
Elemental and Trace Metal Analysis is a critical part of quality control and commercial release in the pharmaceutical and medical device industry. It involves the analysis of trace metals and other elements in raw materials, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), excipients, and formulations to ensure product quality and purity.
Compression Test
Compression tests are used to determine a material’s behavior under applied crushing loads, and are typically conducted by applying compressive pressure to a test specimen (usually of either a cuboid or cylindrical geometry) using platens or specialized fixtures on a universal testing machine.
Steam Sterilisation Technology
Steam sterilisation technology exposes your products with saturated steam under pressure. Steam enhances the ability of heat to kill microorganisms by reducing the time and temperature required to denature or coagulate proteins in the microorganisms. Steam sterilisation cycles generally have three phases including conditioning, exposure and exhaust. Steam sterilisation is a simple but very effective method of decontamination.
Introduction to Concentrated Impact Test
Concentrated Impact Test is a type of transit testing that is performed to make sure a package can withstand the rigors and environment of the distribution cycle. It is one of the most widespread impact testing methods for measuring the protective capacity of packaging.
Environmental Monitoring
Environmental monitoring is a crucial process that helps to assess the impact of human activities on the environment and take steps to minimize any negative effects. Failure to conduct environmental monitoring can result in a lack of understanding of the environmental impact of an organization’s activities, leading to potential harm to the natural environment and human health.
Introduction to EO Sterilisation
At Medistri, whether you are a start-up or a large established company, you can track your products through the EO sterilisation process and have a clear overview of when your products are ready to leave our facilities. Medistri can ship your sterile products directly to your customers or to your distribution centre.
Mechanical Handling Test
Mechanical handling refers to the use of machines and equipment to move, store, control, and protect materials, goods, and products throughout the process of manufacturing, distribution, consumption, and disposal. Mechanical handling tests are used to evaluate the ability of shipping units to withstand the stresses of manual and mechanical handling during the distribution process.
