Selecting the right equipment for aseptic processing

During sterile manufacturing, human operators pose the greatest risk for product contamination. To reduce microbiological and particulate contamination risks, aseptic techniques typically rely on either laminar flow equipment used within a cleanroom environment or barrier technology. Laminar flow equipment includes laminar flow hoods and biosafety cabinets (Class I, Class II, and Class III). Barrier technology includes restricted access barrier systems (RABS) and isolators.
