The latest innovation in rapid microbiology method (RMM) instrument technology is real-time viable detectors, like TSI’s BioTrak™ Real-Time Viable Particle Counter.  This technology provides unique benefits for microbial contamination monitoring.

The BioTrak Particle Counter has three distinct measurement capabilities, providing maximum awareness of particulate levels present in manufacturing clean room environments.  It measures total particulate count by incorporating an ISO-21501-4 compliant optical detection engine based on TSI’s field proven AeroTrak™ Airborne Particle Counters.

Particle viability is determined using TSI’s patented LIF technology developed over the past 20 years in TSI’s biological threat detection products, but optimized for the pharmaceutical application. The BioTrak Particle Counter uses two channels of fluorescence along with particle size in its discrimination of particles to better differentiate between viable particles from non-viable particles.

The BioTrak Particle Counter incorporates all this capability into a single product operated through an intuitive Graphical User Interface containing the features found in modern Airborne Particle Counters.
