Clean Modules install aseptic unit in Leeds hospitals

Published: 6-Oct-2006 Featured companies: Bioquell An Ecolab Solution


Clean Modules have provided Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust with a brand new MHRA licensed aseptic unit.

Due to the trend towards off-site new builds, the facility was constructed with dose banding and the integration of the latest gassing system in mind to deliver safe and efficient sterile processing.

Constructed within easy reach of both St James and Leeds General Infirmary, the 275m2 unit has dedicated Grade C Cleanrooms for Civas (Central Intravenous Additive Service), Cytotoxic and Sterility Testing each containing Grade A isolator cabinets.

These utilise new hydrogen peroxide gassing technology in the form of a Bioquell Clarus Port. This connects to two La Calhene four glove isolators fitted with bagging out systems to create a streamlined Civas unit. To maximise this investment, specialist ducting has been installed enabling the Cytotoxic and sterility test isolators to also be gassed.

Clean Modules designed the unit to incorporate designated space for preparation, storage and quality checks. Due to its scale, careful consideration had to be given to materials flow in pass through areas and transfer hatches. This resulted in the creation of a central quality inspection and sterility testing resource immediately adjacent to the production areas.
