Bioburden
Bioburden or microbial limit testing is performed
on pharmaceutical products and medical products as a quality
control measure. Products or components used in the pharmaceutical
or medical field require control of microbial levels during
processing and handling. Bioburden or microbial limit testing
on these products prove that the requirements are met.
Microbial limit testing of raw material
as well as finished pharmaceutical products can help to determine
whether the product complies with the requirements of the BP,
Ph. Eur. or USP. Bioburden testing of components can show the
use of adequate control measures during the preparation and
handling.
