Pharmaceutical Isolator FAQs

1. What is a pharmaceutical isolator?
A pharmaceutical isolator is a fully enclosed, gas-tight system that creates a sterile environment for handling products. It protects both the operator and the product from contamination and includes on-board biodecontamination to keep the workspace sterile between uses.

2. How is an isolator different from an O-RABS?
Unlike an O-RABS, which relies on cleanroom conditions, an isolator is completely sealed from the external environment and typically includes automated decontamination systems, providing a higher level of sterility assurance.

3. What are pharmaceutical isolators used for?
They are commonly used in aseptic fill-finish operations, sterile compounding, handling potent compounds, and other processes where strict contamination control is critical.

4. Why choose Germfree isolators?
Germfree has been designing biocontainment and sterile equipment since the 1960s. Our isolators combine proven engineering with modern innovation, offering reliability, ease of use, and industry-leading contamination control.

5. Do Germfree isolators meet regulatory standards?
Yes, all Germfree pharmaceutical isolators are designed to comply with cGMP & EU Annex 1 requirements, as well as international regulatory recommendations.
