Normalized Data in Microbial Continuous Monitoring
Should I be concerned about normalizing data (CFU/m³) for grade A and B areas in Microbial Continuous Monitoring?
Aerospace and Defense Particle Counting
Typical ISO class cleanrooms in industries such as Pharmaceuticals or Semiconductors necessitate a standard set of demands for particle counting instrumentation and accessories to help customers achieve the required specifications outlined by regulatory committees. The Aerospace and Defense industries need to meet their own unique set of requirements that are often more variable and customer-specific than in other markets; this is something Particle Measuring Systems instrumentation and expertise can support.
