Pace Analytical Life Sciences performs traditional membrane filtration, closed filtration using the Steritest™ system, and direct inoculation. Experienced microbiologists work directly with the client to ensure recovery method suitability is appropriate for each product configuration. Sterility testing at Pace Analytical Life Sciences is carried out in ISO Class 5 hoods in an ISO Class 7 clean room. Stringent procedures are in place to prevent false positive results.
