The Future of Precision Medicine: Radiopharmaceutical Preparation for Targeted Diagnostics and Treatment

Safer and More Effective Radiopharmaceutical Production With Germfree's Advanced Cleanrooms and Equipment Solutions

Radiopharmaceuticals are drugs that contain radioactive isotopes and are used as diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Due to the hazardous nature of radioisotopes, lead shielded aseptic processing equipment is required for their production and handling. These cleanrooms have specific requirements such as HEPA exhaust and biosecurity features to prevent contamination and protect workers.

Germfree’s expertise in designing facilities and equipment for complex critical environments ensures compliant radiopharmaceutical preparation and production at varying scales. Radiopharmaceuticals play a crucial role in advanced therapies, including nuclear medicine and cancer treatment, and are a rapidly growing sector of the biopharmaceutical industry.

The RADIOSAFE Laminar Flow Biosafety Cabinet provides a high degree of localized protection from particulate and aerosol hazards. The work area of the biological safety cabinet is continuously bathed with laminar flow ISO 5 HEPA-filtered air to protect the product from contamination while an inward airflow protects the user. Approximately 70% of the air from each cycle is recirculated through the supply HEPA filter while the remaining air is discharged from the biosafety cabinet through the exhaust HEPA filter. An optional thimble connection allows for external ducting of the exhaust air.

The Class II Type A RADIOSAFE Series of Biosafety Cabinets meets all requirements for USP 825 compliance and is constructed from 100% Stainless Steel.

Ensuring Safe Handling of High-Risk Biological Agents

Gloveboxes serve the needs of a diverse range of industries including biotechnology, biomedical, nuclear, defense, pharmaceutical, semiconductor and chemical applications. When these enclosures are used for microbiological research or to handle pathogens, they are referred to as Class III Biosafety Cabinets.

The Class 2, Type B2 Laminar Flow Biosafety Cabinet provides a high degree of localized protection from particulate and aerosol hazards. The work area is continuously bathed with laminar flow ISO 5/Class 100 HEPA-filtered air while creating a negative pressure airflow into the cabinet to provide user protection.

The Class 2, Type A2 Laminar Flow Biosafety Cabinet provides a high degree of localized protection from particulate and aerosol hazards. The work area of the biological safety cabinet is continuously bathed with laminar flow ISO 5 HEPA-filtered air to protect the product from contamination while an inward airflow protects the user. Approximately 70% of the air from each cycle is recirculated through the supply HEPA filter while the remaining air is discharged from the biosafety cabinet through the exhaust HEPA filter. These biosafety cabinets eliminate cross-contamination and the accidental release of carcinogenic aerosols and drugs to the outside environment.

Protecting Product and Process

Straddle Laminar Airflow units are used to provide product and process protection for large scale applications that would not be possible inside a standard laminar flow hood. Additionally, Straddle LAF units can be used to house robotic machines, such as those used for aseptic vial filling, closing, and capping. In many applications, use of a Straddle LAF can eliminate the need for an ISO 5 or better cleanroom.
