Pharmaceutical Air Quality Monitoring Equipment

A carefully controlled environment is crucial to maintaining pharmaceutical quality assurance and control in all areas from lab spaces, R&D areas, and production lines. Air quality monitoring equipment is used to test for the presence of air contaminants, which may include a wide range of environmental pollutants, gases, microbes, moisture, and other particulates.

What is the purpose of air quality monitoring?

Air quality monitoring equipment must test for and detect any airborne particles of both viable and non-viable nature. Equipment must also be calibrated and designed to factor in temperature, humidity, air pressure, air flow, and air motion.

While it is important to keep your pharmaceutical manufacturing environment clear of unwanted pollutants and microorganisms, air quality monitoring can serve drug developers in a clinical setting. Every clinical trial requires tons of data to understand the factors that affect a specific treatment. Researchers are now able to rely on real-time, hyperlocal air quality data to factor into their models.
