An NPSA rapid response report that was released on 21st January states that procedures must be in place to identify if vaccines have been stored outside the manufacturers recommended temperature ranges before they are administered to patients.
TimestripPlus is a cost effective device that will not only record breaches in the cold chain but the length of time that a breach has occurred.

TimestripPlus for TPN
New TimestripPlus™ is a cost effective method of making sure that Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) made up in pharmacy is delivered to the patient with no break in the cold chain.
There is currently no other inexpensive method of tracking the temperature of cold chain items once they have left the pharmacy or validated refrigeration unit.
Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) is a typical example of a product manufactured in aseptic pharmacy that must be kept in a validated refrigerated environment and not left at room temperature for lengthy periods of time which could result in compromising the safety of immune deficient patients.
Simply activate the TimestripPlus™ at room temperature and apply to the TPN bag using the self adhesive backing. The TPN bag should be kept below 8 deg C (refrigerated) until it is required.

Autoclave Filters
Isovent autoclave filters
At the end of a steam cycle during autoclave sterilisation, air is drawn into the unit and passed over the contents for drying purposes. This air needs to be free from particulates and the Isovent 50mm HEPA filters are an excellent choice for this application.
The 1/4 inch stepped barb connectors fit most autoclave and steriliser units, but isovent autoclave filters can be supplied with either flush connectors or screw threads if required.
To order isovent autoclave filters please quote part number FH1551 or call 0800 0328 428 for more information and samples.
