الوصف: | Effective detection of microbiological contaminations present in medicinal cellular products is a crucial step to ensure patients’ safety. In recent decades, several rapid microbiological methods have been developed and validated, but variabilities linked to the use of different resources have led to discordant validation of methods and performance results. Considering this, while developing an in-house BacT/Alert-based method, we evaluated all of the materials used in its validation. Of particular importance, we noticed that the syringe gauge used to inject the samples into the bottles was crucial to obtain robust results. We chose to conduct a comparative test between the BacT/Alert system and the compendial method described in the European Pharmacopoeia, using five dilutions of nine reference microorganism strains and 21G or 27G needles. Our results confirmed that the BacT/Alert system is a valid and faster alternative method to assess sterility of clinical cell therapy products, and that the use of 27G needles increases its sensitivity to detect reference anaerobe microorganisms. |
