Microbiology: Air Monitoring - Hospital & Clinical

Select the Appropriate System for Your Application

The M Air T Portable Air Tester is ideal for detecting airborne, pathogenic microorganisms in pharmacies, surgical suites, and other critical patient care areas.

The M Air T Tester for Isolator is an innovative concept for evaluating microbiological quality of isolators and laminar flow hoods for preparation of sterile bags for pharmacy. The system consists of a programmable, constant-flow suction pump and an independent sampling head that is compatible with the various sterilizing agents used to decontaminate isolators.

Obtain Reproducible Results with Ease

The M Air T Testers use an active sampling method of sieve impaction to bring reproducibility and convenience to air monitoring. This method measures the number of microbial contaminants in a known volume of air, leading to reproducible results. The pre-poured, gamma-irradiated agar cassettes minimize the risk of contamination. The consistent filling level and flat surface of the agar cassettes improves reproducibility by keeping the distance between the sieve and the surface of the agar constant between samples.

The M Air T Testers process a large air sample volume in a short time (1000L of air in less than 8 minutes), allowing you to quickly obtain reliable results with maximum recovery. In clean environments where the number of microbes present is likely to be very low, the ability to measure large air volumes is essential to obtaining meaningful results.

Meet Your Validation Requirements

We offer a complete range of services because we understand that validation is key for your industry. Millipore’s experienced scientists can help reduce the time and cost to validate your air monitoring methodologies. Millipore provides validation protocols and expendables needed for validation as well as rental equipment (rentals in Europe only). We write our comprehensive, ready-to-use Installation Qualification (IQ), Operational Qualification (OQ), and Performance Qualification (PQ) protocols to the same standards as protocols used to validate pharmaceutical processes. If you need additional support, Millipore experts can perform on-site validation, ensuring all test criteria lead to a completely qualified and accurate test method. Maintenance agreements are available to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your system.
