With Ecolab's Bioquell Qube Isolator for Compounding Pharmacies

De manipulação de NPT a citotóxicos, a Ecolab oferece soluções para ajudar a levar seu produto aos pacientes com mais velocidade, segurança e eficiência. Maintaining an environment free of contamination is not only desirable, it is crucial to ensure the drugs and treatments intended for patients are as safe and effective as possible.

Benefits of Using an Isolator for Drug Compounding

Using an isolator system in a Grade C or D cleanroom can improve productivity and generate a significant overall cost saving compared to a Biological Safety Cabinet in a Grade B cleanroom. ISO 8 cleanrooms can cost 78% less than ISO 7 per square foot.

Diferentemente de um gabinete de segurança biológica (BSC) ou de fluxo de ar laminar (LAF), que deve ficar em uma sala limpa de Classificação B, os isoladores podem ficar em uma sala limpa de Classificação C/D. Isso pode resultar em economias substanciais, como:

  • Contas de energia devido ao sistema de climatização de capacidade mais baixa
  • Redução da mão de obra (para limpeza e desinfecção)
  • Redução na manutenção da sala limpa.
  • Redução de custos dos consumíveis de limpeza e desinfecção
  • Menos exigência de aventais
  • Maior eficiência dos operadores, uma vez que o uso de menos vestimentas significa que eles podem trabalhar por longos períodos
A grade C/D cleanroom hosting an isolator can save 78% the costs per square foot to operate than a grade B cleanroom which a BSC/LAF is required to be situated in.1

For drug compounding and preparation, operating in a Grade A / ISO 5 environment is vital.
Ecolab’s Bioquell Qube provides just that.

The Bioquell Qube’s closed system provides maximum protection for operators and product, and can be hosted in a lower grade cleanroom.

The Bioquell 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV) bio-decontamination technology achieves a 6-log validated sporicidal kill on all exposed surfaces including materials.

The Bioquell Qube is a key tool to reduce the risk of operator and product exposure to bacterial (vegetative and spores), fungi, and other biological contaminants including viral vectors, and is designed with regulatory compliance and GMP in mind.

As a standalone, modular system, the Bioquell Qube can be installed and operating with minimal delay and investment. And our expert team is capable of enacting change or helping build SOPs to add in a system quickly.

Optimal Features and Benefits:

  • Maintains validated Grade A / ISO 5 environment
  • Optional environmental monitoring systems
  • Supports 21 CFR Part 11 compliance
  • Supports GMP compliance
  • Integrated Bioquell bio-decontamination technology
  • Can operate in positive or negative pressure if handling cytotoxic compounds
  • Optional ducted exhaust capability for cytotoxic applications, and no need for HVAC connection for non-cytotoxic applications
  • Quick and easy set up

Numerous Configurations and Options to Meet Every Need

With its modular design, the Bioquell Qube can be built to meet your needs by offering a 2, 4 or 6 glove option that can include a material pass through transfer device or RTP on either or both sides of the system selected.

Never slowdown your workflow as glove options allow you to work in one or two chambers, while bio-decontaminating incoming supplies in the other.
