WEBINAR:

A PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology Publication

In March 2022, the BioPhorum Operations Group (BPOG) published an article in the PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology: A Systematic Approach for the Evaluation, Validation, and Implementation of Automated Colony Counting Systems. This article presents robust data from industry experts at leading pharmaceutical manufacturing companies, providing insights into the benefits of automation in routine quality control microbiology testing—focusing on automated sample handling, incubation, and enumeration.

This short, on-demand webinar (less than 15 minutes) summarizes the article, highlighting key impacts when implementing automation in a quality control manufacturing environment.

Join Vid Malhotra as he explores the comparison of automated technologies discussed in the article, including autofluorescence systems (such as our Growth Direct^® System) versus HD camera and illumination-only systems.
