Deployment Environment:IVF Laboratory Background Air quality in an IVF laboratory is extremely critical due to the impact it can have on the embryonic development process. Contamination can come from multiple sources including VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds), particulate contamination, and microbial contamination - all of which can be harmful to embryo development. To protect against these contaminants, IVF labs are typically equipped with clean room grade technologies, such as high-quality air filtration systems coupled with positive pressure room control for air particulate control. Specific Customer Concerns Building works can be a cause of real concern for sensitive environments such as IVF laboratories,...

Deployment Environment: Operating Theatre Environment Background Modern operating theatres are now highly regulated environments as the presence of microbial contamination can present a serious risk to patients undergoing surgery. Operating theatres employ various technologies including High Efficiency Particle Air (HEPA) filtration as well as clothing and hygiene practices designed to mitigate the risk of contamination. The presence of microbial contamination in the air of operating theatres is known to have significant impact on the control of healthcare associated infections, and regular microbial monitoring can assess environmental quality and identify critical situations which require corrective intervention1. Typically, this is done by...
