The membrane filtration sterility testing method is the choice for filterable pharmaceutical products. According to the USP <71>, products are filtered through a 0.45 or 0.2-micron membrane filter in this sterility testing method. The filters are then rinsed with appropriate USP fluid to remove the inhibitors and transferred into fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) and soybean casein digest medium (SCDM). Both media are incubated for 14 days and checked every day for the presence of microbial growth. USP<71> Sterility testing suggests the use of fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) and soybean casein digest medium (SCDM) because of their ability to promote the growth of anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms, respectively. Techniques like these are drivers for market CAGR.
The Pharma market was worth $934.8 billion in 2017 and will reach $1170 billion in 2021, growing at 5.8%. This is accelerated compared to 5.2% for the years before 2017 but is slower than the other two large healthcare segments, medical equipment, and healthcare services. Healthcare as a whole is growing at over 7% year on year. In pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, sterility testing is carried out at all levels of manufacturing to minimize the risk of product contamination. Subsequently, the growth of this end-use industry in the coming years will considerably boost the overall use of sterility testing. With stringent regulatory controls, process monitoring, and quality control are carried out for the entire production chain of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products.
In this process, sterility testing is carried out for raw materials, bulk lot release, and final product release testing. In recent years, impressive growth was witnessed in the Pharma and biotech sectors by application; thus, the pharmaceutical and biological manufacturing market has acquired a good market share and is driving the Rapid Sterility Testing market revenue.
