Sterisart® System for Liquids in Closed, Large Volume Containers

The Sterisart® NF System is a completely closed system for the sterility testing of pharmaceutical products. It is based on the membrane filtration method but eliminates the procedure of manipulating filters. As such, risk of a secondary contamination (and false-positive results) is eliminated.

Top Features of the Sterisart® NF System:

  • Guaranteed sterile barrier for aseptic septum sampling
  • Gas-impermeable, color- and bar-coded packaging
  • Adapters for use of the Sterisart® NF System in all pumps

Popular Applications for the Sterisart® NF System:

  • Sterility testing of sterile pharmaceuticals and medical devices

The Sterisart® NF System is a single-use technology, based on the membrane filtration method, for the sterility testing of pharmaceutical products. By providing 15 different units, technicians can selectively choose which adapter or system best fits their application. The Sterisart® Universal Pump transfers the sample into the filtration units. After rinsing, the filtration units are filled with culture media and used for incubation of the filters without any contact to the environment. After 14 days of incubation, a visible result is available (turbidity | no turbidity).

Dual-Needle Metal Spike for easy and safe piercing

The Sterisart® NF System comes with a patented dual-needle metal spike with an in-built venting filter and a protective shield, making sampling secure and unencumbered. Built-in sterile venting ensures safe interaction with closed sample containers.

Safe, User-Friendly Operation

Intuitive handling has never been easier with the Sterisart® NF System’s color-coded tube clamps, preinstalled to make your work straightforward. Color- and bar-coding keeps items organized, while the gas-impermeable packaging feature means units are free from contaminants. Raised sterile venting with safety clearance prevents accidental clogging and minimizes secondary contamination. The outlet plugs are directly housed in a niche in the primary packaging and the extra-large, grip optimized filter plugs are pre-tethered to the vent filters for easy use with isolator gloves.

Aseptic sampling and supplementation

The septum port of the Sterisart® canisters have been purpose-built to aseptically draw samples for rapid sterility testing, intermediate testing, sub-culturing, and for supplementation with antibiotic inactivators. The port ensures a sterile barrier, while minimizing the risk of puncture injuries. Our meticulously controlled quality testing ensures the system is fully compliant with USP 71, Ph. Eur. 2.6.1 and JP 4.06.
