PAMAS particle counters

Particle Counter for Liquids in Pharmaceutical Production

Purity Controls: Essential for the Highest Quality Standards

Pharmaceutical production is a critical industry. Where purity controls are of essential importance, particle counters play a vital role. Whether in the production of infusion solutions, protein solutions or eye drops, or in ensuring the component purity of medical devices – a reliable particle counter is indispensable.

Why is this and what makes PAMAS, as the manufacturing provider, so special?

Diverse Applications and Challenges

When installing particle counters in the pharmaceutical industry, a lot of criteria need to be adhered to:

• Compliance with pharmacopoeia regulations:Regulations such as USP <788>, USP <787>, USP <789>, Ph. Eur. 2.9.19 demand precise monitoring and documentation of particle number and size in various substances.
• Ensuring medication purity:A central requirement in your industry is ensuring the purity of all medications, to guarantee their effectiveness and safety for patients.
• Avoidance of infections and inflammations through µm particles:Even the smallest particles can pose serious health risks, so it is crucial to monitor and minimise their presence.
• Avoidance of time-consuming microscopic particle measurement:Particularly with volatile and viscous samples, particle counters provide significant time savings over traditional microscopic measurement methods.

Key Questions

Are the devices validated according to USP <1788>?
PAMAS devices are validated according to the strict requirements of USP <1788>. This ensures that they meet the high standards of the pharmaceutical industry and provide traceable, accurate, reliable measurements.

Is the particle counter software compliant with 21 CFR Part 11?
