General description

Device Configuration: 2 canisters

Steritest® NEO is a membrane filtration device for sterility testing of filterable pharmaceutical products. The device simplifies every aspect of testing, from handling to traceability. The closed system minimizes false positives, offers the highest levels of quality & reliability, and ensures that pharmaceutical products are never exposed to the environment during the testing process. This test system offers an optimized and fully regulatory compliant testing process when used with the Steritest® Symbio pump, specific accessories and high-quality culture media and rinsing fluids. The device is gamma sterilized and double packed for the quick transfer into sterility testing environments, simplifying decontamination procedures and saving time. The Steritest® NEO Double Packed device contains a small diameter double needle adapter for small vials with septum. The blue canister base indicates mixed esters of cellulose membrane. This membrane provides an optimal filtration flow rate for standard products.

Application

Steritest® NEO Device for liquids in small vials is used for sterility testing of small volume parenterals and synthetic drugs without antimicrobial activity.

Features and Benefits
