Single-Use Assemblies

Ensuring sterile sampling throughout your production process is crucial for both product quality and data accuracy. Here's where single-use assemblies come in – these innovative tools offer a solution for taking sterile samples at various stages, from cell culture to sterile bulk storage. This not only simplifies the process but also minimizes the risk of contamination through a closed system design and the elimination of cleaning and sterilization steps.

Optimal for Throughout Production: These single-use assemblies are suitable for taking sterile samples at various stages of your entire production process. This could include cell culture, fermentation (growing microorganisms), chromatography (purifying substances), sterile bulk storage (large containers of the product), and transfer between different processing units.

Minimized Contamination Risk: The closed system design is a key advantage. A closed system means the sampling process is isolated from the surrounding environment, minimizing the risk of contamination from external sources. This can help to ensure the accuracy of your samples and reduce the chance of getting "false positives" (incorrectly identifying contamination).

Reduced Cross-Contamination Risk: The single-use nature of these assemblies provides an extra layer of safety by eliminating the risk of cross-contamination. By discarding the components after each use, you avoid the potential for contamination from leftover material in previously used assemblies, a common concern during cleaning and sterilization processes.

Customization Capabilities

Standard vs. Custom Designs: The text mentions the availability of both standard designs for sampling assemblies and the option for customization based on your specific process requirements. This flexibility allows you to choose the most suitable assembly for your needs.

Variety of Components: 

• Variety of Containers: Select from tubes, bags, or bottles to suit your sample collection requirements.
• Aseptic Connectors: These sterile connectors ensure a contamination-free connection between different parts of the sampling assembly.
• Sampling Needles: Choose from various needles for compatibility with your existing equipment or sampling ports used for accessing containers.
• Sanitary Flange Sampling Holders: These are typically used with large tanks and provide a sterile entry point for inserting the sampling needle.
