Event Overview.

As regulations become more stringent, microbiological testing and analyses are critical to ensure the quality of pharmaceutical products. The membrane filter technique is a regulatory approved method for bioburden testing. This sample analysis automated by colony counters saves time, labor costs, and provides detailed information about the colonies. In this webinar, learn how membrane characteristics influence the accuracy of your results.


Key Learning Objectives:

  • Maximize efficiency and control contamination
  • Benefits of automated colony counting process
  • Membrane filtration solution for pharmaceutical bioburden testing

Who Should Attend:

  • Microbiology lab manager
  • Microbiology — quality control
  • Quality control associate — microbiology
  • Microbiology manager
  • Assistant manager microbiologist
  • Head of department — microbiology
