The Role of Air Testing in Cleanrooms and Pharmaceutical Facilities
Cleanrooms and pharmaceutical facilities are highly controlled environments where air quality is critical to product safety, employee health, and regulatory compliance. Even microscopic contaminants in the air can compromise the sterility of products, lead to batch failures, or pose health risks. Air testing is a key component of maintaining cleanroom standards, monitoring airborne particles, and ensuring compliance with global pharmaceutical regulations. This blog explores the importance of air testing in cleanrooms, the types of contaminants monitored, testing methodologies, and the benefits for pharmaceutical manufacturing and research facilities. What is Air Testing in Cleanrooms and Pharmaceutical Facilities? Air testing in these environments involves sampling and analyzing air to detect particulate matter, microbial contaminants, and chemical pollutants. Pharmaceutical cleanrooms are classified based on their allowable particle counts and contamination levels, and air tes...
