    Because drainpoint is coolest point of autoclave and sterilization temprature should achieve till coolest point ,for ensuring that one temprature sensor is placed at drain point.thanks

    Many chances to contamination from drain point ,that's why require temperature sensor in drain for assure steam penetration achieve sterilization

    In drain point all water condensate drain in the point only so if temperature achieved in drain point all locations will be achieved normally

    What is the reason for considering 6 log? Why not 5 log or 7 log? What is the significance of 6 log?

    • @PharmGrow
      @PharmGrow  Рік тому +10

      Very good and expected question
      As we know that it is practically impossible to get 100 % assured on the sterilization process that it will Inactivate or kill all microorganisms.
      6 log reduction means reducing microbial population of 1000000 (1 million) to 01 i.e. percent reduction of 99.9999. This is considered as very good % reduction for microbial population and recommended as a sterility assurance level (SAL) for sterilization processes.
      Hence, considering good percent reduction, 6 log reduction is accepted for sterility assurance level. With an overkill approach we can go beyond 6 log reduction i.e. 7, 8 and so on to have additional assurance.
      One more reason to go with 6 log reduction is to meet guideline requirements.
      Guideline reference:
      PDA’s technical report No.01 (revised 2007) recommends for 6 log reduction
      EPA performance standard of Hospital / Healthcare disinfection recommends for 6 log reduction for test organism.
      Hope this will help you.

    Why exposed biological indicators should incubate with in 4 hours. What is the rationale?

    • @PharmGrow
      @PharmGrow  Рік тому

      To get accurate and reliable results exposed biological indicators should be incubate within 4 hours.
      Exposed biological indicators should be incubated within 4 hours to detect any surviving spores, assess the effectiveness of the sterilization process, and ensure accurate and reliable results in compliance with industry standards.
      Delay in incubation may allow allow other factors to act like temperature, oxygen etc.
      Hope you get answer. I searched for guideline reference but it was not found. We can follow this as standard industrial practice.

    Sir, how can we know that we have achieved 6 log reduction.

    • @PharmGrow
      @PharmGrow  7 місяців тому +2

      The concept of confirming 6 log reduction is very simple. We need not to perform testing for 6 log reduction after each routine / commercial cycle.
      We just need to perform validation of parameters (like temp, time and pressure) for sterilization cycle that it will achieve 6 log reduction. During cycle validation / revalidation only we need to prove with testing that set parameters are adequate to achieve 06 log reduction.
      For more detail info you can see my dedicated video on SAL i.e. sterility assurance level. You can get it in playlist of Injectable processing. Link given below,

      Chemical indicators does not have bacteria present. It has chemical which undergoes physical or chemical change after sterilization process.
