To determine:
◦ the effect of different storage conditions on the
surface bioburden of items used during aseptic
preparation
◦ whether the material of the item affects surface
bioburden
◦ efficiency of SteriVal® method compared to
traditional contact plating
![Page 3: Comparative studies of transfer methods Mark Oldcorne.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f455503460f94c66ab2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Manufacturers packaging was removed from two
item types:
• 0.9% sodium chloride 2ml glass ampoule with
coated paper label from Phoenix Pharma
• Lidocaine 2ml plastic ampoule with coated paper
label from Braun
SteriVal® (Helapet) “total immersion” method was
used to determine the surface bioburden on items.

The surface bioburden of each (n=10) was
determined immediately (t=0) and then after
exposure to three different environmental
conditions for 5 days
• Grade C cleanroom
• Grade D storage area
• Unclassified storage area

The surface bioburden of 50ml vials from a
single manufacturer was determined
2 methods utilised
◦ the SteriVal® total immersion method (n=10)
◦ contact plating with Tryptone Soya Agar (n=10)

Initial surface bioburden affected by:
◦ Storage conditions
◦ Container material type
◦ Container manufacturer
SteriVal® method recovered
approximately double the number of cfu
compared to contact plating
