Ecolab Bioquell Qube bio-decontamination equipment

Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing and Compounding

If surface contaminants find their way into your pharmaceutical production line, patient safety and product quality are at risk. You may even need to stop production until a time-consuming investigation is performed. To help protect your patients, production, and brand reputation, you need a reliable bio-decontamination strategy.

Bioquell bio-decontamination systems help reduce biological surface contaminants in pass-throughs, airlocks, and filling lines. Our automated, validated equipment helps you rest assured that you have reduced bio-contaminants in your facility.


Bio-decontamination Applications

Airborne or surface bio-contaminants in a sterility testing lab can contaminate a sample, which can lead to false positives or even the need to halt production. Bioquell provides a range of options to help maintain the reliability and safety of sterility testing, and reduce the risk of false positives.

A bio-contamination event can result in a costly delay to your operations. Bioquell bio-decontamination equipment works well with restricted-access barrier systems (RABS), production and filling lines. Bioquell equipment can also be used in spaces with complex surfaces, such as fermentation vessels, where manual disinfection can be challenging.

Spray-and-wipe methods have their place, but are prone to human error. Was every single surface of the pass-through or airlock decontaminated? Bioquell solutions help reduce this doubt by bio-decontaminating all exposed surfaces.

About Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor

During a bio-decontamination cycle, Bioquell technology fills an enclosed area with 35% hydrogen peroxide vapor. In just one cycle, this vapor provides a 6-log sporicidal kill on exposed surfaces. Unlike chemical sterilants that can leave toxic residues behind, hydrogen peroxide vapor breaks down into water and oxygen once the bio-decontamination cycle and aeration is complete.

Use Even on Sensitive Electronics and Equipment

Our hydrogen peroxide vapor is tough on microbial surface contaminants, but gentle on electronics and equipment. Unlike spray-and-wipe methods, there are no additional steps to remove residue. When you need to bio-decontaminate spaces that contain hard-to-clean equipment, Bioquell is ideal. Before using Bioquell on your electronic equipment, check with the manufacturers to confirm compatibility.
