Sterile Compounding
Our compounding pharmacy is one of only several in Australia equipped with a state of the art ISO Class 7 sterile room and an adjacent ISO Class 8 ante room which are required for the production of sterile preparations. We have a GERMFREE ISO Class 5 sterile laminar flow Barrier Isolator which is located in the ISO 7 sterile room in which all sterile preparations are made. These ensure that products produced by are us are indeed sterile and safe to inject.
We are equipped with a dry heat sterilisation oven to sterilise and depyrogenate all glassware and utensils involved in the compounding process to prevent contamination of bacteria or pyrogens. We use commercially available sterile and pyrogen free water for injections, vials and filters in all our sterile products to minimize the source of contamination.
We have a dry heat oven, autoclave and various 0.2 micron filters available for sterilisation methods.
Our Sterile room undergoes daily bacteriocidal cleaning to maintain a sterile environment.
We are also about to undertake our own in-house sterility testing facility to test end products to ensure their sterility in addition to routine surface microbial testing.
We also monitor the environment by taking weekly air samples inside the sterile room and inside the barrier isolator to ensure no resistant bacteria are present.
All sterile compounding is done by Dr Michael Serafin, our chief compounding pharmacist, who has over 10 years experience in sterile compounding and prior to that has been involved in sterility work since the 1990′s while completing his PhD at Sydney University. He is one of Australia’s most experienced compounding pharmacists in sterile compounding.
