USP 797 and Microbiology
Services

USP 797 is a chapter of the United States Pharmacopeia that sets the standards for sterile compounding in healthcare and pharmacies. Requirements include cleanroom and environmental control, personnel training, and environmental monitoring. We can assist with all requirements to make sure your facility is compliant with USP 797.

Not a pharmacy? We offer microbiology services for any industry. Please contact us for more information on custom microbiology solutions.

  • Identification services are available for most bacterial and fungal organisms recovered from environmental samples. This ensures that no highly pathogenic organisms are present in your classified areas and can assist with creating meaningful action plans when samples have out-of-compliance results. Media incubated within your own facility can also be sent to us for identification services.

  • All samples are incubated according to current USP 797 guidelines. Appropriate media and incubation protocols are available for the recovery of both bacteria and fungi. Incubation times may vary based on media type and protocol. Most reports are available within 48-72 hours after incubation, using our secure file sharing software, Sharefile. You can access your reports 24/7 from your facility.

  • All the supplies and services required to perform surface and/or personnel sampling monthly in one neat package. Surface and personnel sampling kits are available and ready to ship. Viable airborne monitoring solutions and certifications are available by request.

These can include pharmacies, bio-tech, healthcare facilities/hospitals, sterile processors, surgical centers and dental offices. Types of water facilities test include utility water, critical water, or steam.

Depending on your facility, water may need to be tested at different intervals to ensure safety and quality. Not sure where to start? Reach out and inquire with us.
