We are going to qualify our new facility… Almost all the areas have been declared as Class D…What tests we need to qualify this facility regarding environment qualification?? do we need to test Class D also on the basis of Particulate test for each rooms or only where products are processed and exposed…Other areas like corridors and IPC rooms which are also declared as Class D do we need to check particles as per ISO 14644-1 to qualify this rooms or no need…
During qualification of a new facility, apart form a gamet of activities, monitoring and measuring the viable and non viable count is one of the key aspects so that they do not impose any risk of contamination to your product. Having said that contamination will occur only in area where the product is exposed to environment. As your products do not get exposed in areas like corridors those can be excluded from monitoring with proper scientific rationale
