Environmental monitoring involves both viable and non-viable particles and evaluates personnel cleaning and sanitization activities along with monitoring existing clean rooms and HVAC systems. The main focus is on control of microbiological organisms. Potential contamination risks can be mitigated by proper monitoring and surveillance of aseptic processing environment. This can be used to derive significant insight into potential contamination risk along with overall production quality. Our products include a diverse catalog of Ready Prepared and Dehydrated Media for Environmental Monitoring, Disinfectant Testing and Sanitary Examination.
Disinfectant Testing
The HiMedia product range ensures a full catalog of disinfectant efficacy testing media for laboratories / factories and can ensure that they are effectively cleaned and disinfected in a time bound manner. This constitutes a basic pre-requisite for producing safe to use products. Our catalog offers media for testing of high-profile organisms such as Clostridium difficille (spores), MRSA, Salmonella sp, Listeria sp, Campylobacter sp, Acinetobacter baumanii, ß- lactam resistant Klebsiella strains etc. along with a full suite of media for a wide range of bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi and yeast.
Environmental Monitoring
Testing environments are highly complex and demanding, especially the pharmaceutical testing environment. To cope with this challenging environment, HiMedia products offer a range of options from Dehydrated Media to Ready Prepared Media for environmental monitoring in Pharma industries, hospitals, cosmetic industry, food industry and beverages. Because only the micro-organisms which can be found can be recovered, our products for Ready Prepared Media like Soyabean Casein Digest Broth and Fluid Thioglycollate Medium are widely used in sterility testing and are available as kits.
Sanitary Examination
Sanitary examination of surfaces can be crucial for operations like bottle washing in the soft drinks and related industries. To ensure full confidence in such operations, HiMedia offers a wide range of media like HS Medium which is used for sterility testing purposes and the cultivation of aerobic as well as anaerobic bacteria. Another one of our products, called Buffered yeast agar, is widely deployed for the cultivation of yeasts and molds.
