CASE STUDY Aseptic Sampling Problem Solution Client: Dutch Nutraceuticals Problem: Inconsistent Data Solution: QualiTru Aseptic Sampling System Results: Consistency, Confidence and Profitability The QualiTru team reviewed the clients current manufacturing process. It analyzed needs at both the raw and finished silos along with the failure modes for each piece of processing equipment. After obtaining a thorough understanding of the process and improvements needed, the teams collaborated on a working plan that addresses all concerns. Results Dutch Nutraceutical Plant is Confident in Their Aseptic Sampling Process Today, the team can trust the sample data collected across the entire manufacturing process and produce a reliable product. Sample points included: rennet silos, lactose liquid load out and non-filtration verification. The new standard QualiTru aseptic sampling ports and rigorous sample collection process allowed understanding of what is happening in their system continuously. Having consistent tools and methods reduces risks of different influences on sample collection. The case for a comprehensive aseptic sampling process was clear. The Quality team could not properly evaluate their process or their product because of unreliable and inconsistent data. Microbiological data varied throughout the process. The team was challenged by not knowing if the equipment and sanitation process was working properly due to the lack of data. They contacted QualiTru for assistance to develop a plan to collect representative samples of raw ingredients and finished products throughout the process. The new sampling plan must provide accurate data, simple to use and safe for employees. After recognizing our samples were unreliable with unhygienic equipment, we are now confident using QualiTru ports to collect samples. — Quality Manager The sample ports are easy to use and can easily be cleaned. Also, the instructions on how to replace and use is very easy to find and follow step by step. —Operations Manager
