Definition:
Cleanroom Sample points include particle counters and microbial monitors.
- Identification of critical areas by HACCP analysis and process understanding
- Choose points within the critical areas according to defined criteria
- When performed this way, you can demonstrate a thorough evaluation based on scientific criteria that any sampling point was considered
Define final points based on available space, environmental design, evaluation of product and primary container closure exposure.
