USP <71> Sterile Vial and Pen Testing
United States Pharmacopeia (USP) <71> sterility testing for sterile containers like sterile vials and sterile pen injector needles and cartridges.
Lead time is 14 - 21 days for incubation and analysis. If the test fails, organism identification is available for an additional charge.
USP <71> recommends a number of containers to test based on batch size. All containers sent are composited and tested as one sample, so there is no additional charge for up to 20 containers:
- Less 100 vials: 10% or four vials, whichever is greater
- Between 100 and 500 vials: 10 vials
- Greater than 500 vials: 20 vials
