IMA Life IsoTech Lab – In-House Isolator Research & Development Laboratory

Our in-house Isolator Research & Development Laboratory, the IsoTech Lab, is made up of the Microbiological Laboratory and Isolator Pilot Room hosting an MTI, an infeed Rotary Table, a Filling & Stoppering machine and CLU (compact loading system) under isolator to carry out tests.

A sterility assurance team works alongside our engineers to improve the isolation systems and determine even shorter and more appropriate VPHP decontamination cycle technology applied to our equipment. We have ongoing cooperation agreements with scientists and experts in the field to support a pragmatic, industrial approach.

Our first key objective is to perform internal research and:

improve VPHP cycle efficiency, optimising standard methods and testing new technologies
check the performance of utilities and equipment circuits
compare VPHP generators with other decontamination methods
verify material compatibility and resistance to decontamination agents

Our second key objective is to set up and conduct activities in conjunction with our customers:

to check VPHP decontamination cycle times with defined isolator loads
to perform preliminary customer training sessions for isolator management

The IsoTech Lab is where our unique, integrated solutions are designed, tested and developed for aseptic processing lines and freeze-drying applications.
