CASE STUDY – Biological Decontamination of a Newly Renovated Animal Research Facility Using Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant
An animal research facility at University College Cork Ireland required high-level decontamination to remove any potential bioburden from the two story facility after the refurbishment was completed, and before the facility was going live. The Bioquell Rapid Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS) was chosen to perform a 6-log kill sporicidal reduction with hydrogen peroxide vapor decontamination of the entire facility including its dedicated HVAC system which took place overnight.
DownloadCASE STUDY – Biological Decontamination of a Vaccine Production Facility
An industrial biotechnology company producing injectable vaccines in Denmark was looking to introduce more rigorous control measures to
ensure a high level of bio-decontamination in its facility. Commissioning Bioquell’s Rapid Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS) team,
approximately 4,500m3 was bio-decontaminated using hydrogen peroxide vapor within two days.
CASE STUDY – Priority Response Plan (PRP) for Bio-decontamination of a Biopharmaceutical Production Facility
When a multinational biopharmaceutical company in Asia, was looking to introduce a rigorous plan to ensure high-level bio decontamination of their manufacturing facility in the event of contamination, they called on Bioquell. This study overviews how Bioquell’s Rapid Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS) was able to produce a Priority Response Plan (PRP) that enabled swift mobilization of RBDS personnel and equipment and reduced the risk of unforeseen challenges thus minimizing downtime of the manufacturing facility.
DownloadCASE STUDY – Complete decontamination of hydroponic room in vertical farming facility
When a Singapore-based vertical farming facility, needed a fast and effective alternative to its slow and labor intensive manual cleaning operations during
a crop changeover, it turned to Bioquell and its highly effective Rapid Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS). Bioquell RBDS successfully decontaminated its indoor vertical hydroponic room without interruption to the company’s workflow.
The value of Bioquell Room Chemical Indicator (Room CI) as an instant, quantitative evaluation of efficacy in biodecontamination processes
Although Biological Indicators are commonly used as bio-decontamination indicators, there are several limitations associated with their use. Bioquell chemical indicators offer a solution to the limitations of BIs and are formulated and calibrated to a defined BI response to Bioquell hydrogen peroxide vapor technology, providing a visible color change to indicate 6 log kill conditions have been met. With less variability and no wait time for results, Bioquell Room CI is a fast and effective indicator that improves risk management and reduces your operating costs.
DownloadImproving Personnel Safety and Shortening Cycle Time with Accurate Calibration of Low-level Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Instruments
When performing automated decontamination cycles using hydrogen peroxide vapor, user safety is of the utmost importance. To ensure this, it is important that any low-level hydrogen peroxide sensor, used to determine the end of a decontamination cycle, is accurate. Doing so also helps optimize cycle time. This paper overviews how Bioquell now have a calibration capability able to expose these sensors to a 1ppm hydrogen peroxide vapor concentration verified accurately using the published OSHA 1019 Method.
