The future of sterility testing: one-day results with advanced RT-rt PCR technology

In the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, sterility testing remains a critical aspect of product safety and compliance. However, traditional methods can be time-consuming, often requiring several days to deliver results, delaying workflows and extending product release timelines. The need for faster, more accurate, and efficient sterility testing has never been greater.

This webinar explored the latest advancements in sterility testing, focusing on how RNA-based detection and RT-rt PCR technology have transformed the field.

We demonstrated how cutting-edge methods enable results to be obtained in just one day, drastically reducing typical testing timelines. By enhancing sensitivity and minimising false positives caused by residual DNA or dead microorganisms, these approaches address long-standing challenges in sterility assurance.

During the session, we discussed how this innovative approach can integrate seamlessly into existing workflows, boosting efficiency without compromising reliability. We’ll also explore key applications, demonstrate the wide detection range (aerobic and anaerobic bacteria as well as fungi), and take a closer look at the step-by-step process that delivers rapid and reliable results.

Whether you’re a quality control specialist, microbiologist, or lab manager, this webinar will provided actionable insights into revolutionising your sterility testing practices.

Key learning points:

• We showed how modern RT-rt PCR technology delivers sterility test results within just one day compared to traditional multi-day methods
• We explored the innovative technique that prevents false positives caused by residual DNA or dead microorganisms
• We covered the benefit from an all-in-one solution that detects a wide range of aerobic/anaerobic bacteria and fungi efficiently
• We detailed how the step-by-step workflow integrates RNA isolation and RT-rt PCR, delivering actionable results in under seven hours.
