125 SMA MICROPORTABLE
AIR SAMPLERS
VAI’s viable air monitoring equipment is designed to sample a
quantifiable amount of air for viable contamination using our 123, 124 SMA MICROPORTABLE
patented Sterilizable Microbial Atrium (SMA®) and a standard ICS
media plate. A SMA Atrium® is a 316L Stainless Steel capture 126 SMA MICROPORTABLE
device that is connected to a controlled vacuum source, such as MODEL COMPARISONS
the SMA MicroPortable ICS® or SMA MicroPortable® Air Sampler.
Air is directed from the environment to impact onto a media plate
contained inside of the Atrium. The media plate is then incubated
and tested to determine the number of viable organisms per cubic
foot or liter of air.

Cart Transfer Systems
Cart Transfer Systems for Assuring Clean Cart Transference in Classified Areas
For countless years GMP firms have struggled with the problematic
issue of “how do we transfer carts from the exterior unclassified area or
the adjacent lesser grade (C/D) classified area to the Grade A/B area?”
Cleaning and subsequent disinfection of the upper portions of carts, while
Section Contents
labor intense, are manageable. However, the bases and wheels have 147 CART2CORE
been one of the most problematic situations in the industry to date. FLOW CHART
148 CART2CORE
Cleaning of bases, wheels, casters and underneath the cart are virtually MODELS
impossible. Any procedure implemented is, on the whole, ineffective in

UTILITY CART DETAILS
to the cart. The inability to easily reach all pertinent surface areas of
the base or wheels at the floor level causes problematic situations
with assured and effective wiping of these surfaces. Thus, cleaning is
compromised.
STEP STEP
STEP

The dirtied Cart2Core base
is cleaned, disinfected
and/or sterilized for the
next use within the area.
Bases are deemed
area-specific.
The Cart2Core System has been designed to simplify aseptic cart transferring. This patent pending
system provides the ability for cleanroom operations to transfer materials through classified
areas while reducing the possibility of particulate and microbial cross-contamination. A previously
arduous process has become simple. The cart top is able to be transferred to another previously
cleaned, disinfected, or sterilized cart base located in the next classified area. Simply lift the
handle and slide the top of the cart onto the next base, leaving the potential contamination
behind.
Available cart top configurations include: a Micro Cart for production, micro, and cleaning
personnel, a Can/Bottle Cart that is designed to convey large cans and bottles, a Tray Cart for
transporting trays of vials, parts, and other needed items, and a Utility Cart for everyday use that is
also ideal for pass throughs.
CC-M-100: Micro Cart
Benefits of the Cart2Core System
• Allows for wheels and bases to be easily and effectively cleaned, disinfected, or sterilized by
making the bases and wheels autoclavable
• Reduces safety concerns with cleaning
• Provides the ability to steam sterilize bases and wheels routinely
• Reduces the overuse of disinfectants, therefore, reducing corrosion and pitting
• Reduces garment contamination and glove ripping

GMP firms have a constant struggle with the task of reducing fibers,
particulates, and microorganisms within classified areas. A main
source of this problem is paper products used to document operations. Section Contents
Characteristically, paper products shed a high level of fibers and
151 CLEANPRINT 10®
particulates. These fibers and particulates can wreak havoc on any
aseptic operation by corrupting environmental conditions and final 153 CORE2PRINT®
product. In response, VAI has developed an innovative way to address
and solve questions surrounding particulate and fiber shedding from 152 CORE2WRITE®
cleanroom documentation with our Cleanroom Documentation Systems
product lines.
Core2Write is a patented technology that revolutionizes the method of cleanroom documentation by providing
custom logbooks, notebooks, one part or two-part identical tear off tags, labels, and forms printed on VAI’s
cellulose free CleanPrint 10®. The Core2Write product line starts with a custom evaluation of what logbooks,
forms, tags or labels are required. Core2Write products are fully customized to the facility’s needs. Firms can
incorporate their company name, logo, SOP Name & Number and Document Revision Number. Once determined,
such documents and artwork are digitally designed into the product required, printed, and RFID, QR, and/or
barcoding integrated. In addition, VAI offers standard, blank, labels and notebooks.
Core2Write products, via RFID, QR and barcoding integration, are compatible with our Core2Scan System. These
Core2Write products can be used to easily track documentation, assets, and procedures. The Core2Write line
also offers gamma irradiated sterile Sharpies® and pens for use alongside documentation materials.

Core2Print, a patented technology, revolutionizes the method for printing required sterile
documentation within aseptic manufacturing environments. The Core2Print unit is constructed
of 316L Stainless Steel for durability with lexan windows for a clear view of the printer in
operation. HEPA filtration in the cabinet is a mandatory feature. Therefore, positive pressure
within the cabinet is equally filtered to the controlled environment. The CP10 printer, housed
in the cabinet, wirelessly prints onto VAI’s pre-sterilized, cellulose free, CleanPrint 10 synthetic
writing substrate: the most durable cleanroom “paper” in the industry.
The Core2Print has been designed to provide the capability to print clean, low particulate, and
sterile documents within the aseptic manufacturing environment. Due to the many features of
the Core2Print unit and the CP10 printer, the cleanroom stays clean throughout documentation
efforts. The mandatory HEPA filter continuously prevents contamination from exiting the
cabinet.

1• An employee brings a cart loaded with equipment down the corridor, and enters the material airlock, leaving the

2• An RFID reader inside the airlock records this event, with a time and date stamp in Core2Scan software.

4• The employee enters the cleanroom and works throughout their shift with the RFID tagged supplies and equipment

5• Finished product is then sent into the packing room where cases are RFID tagged for further tracking.
Items to note:
• As depicted in this drawing, all assets can be RFID tagged: carts, equipment, people, raw material, supplies, and

• Strategically placed RFID readers automatically capture critical data throughout your facility, providing users with

ATCC cultures against the chosen array of disinfecting agents.
As time and personnel within GMP firms may be unavailable to conduct these extremely important studies, one can have
VAI Laboratories complete these items on a contract basis.
The identification of microbial contaminants is completed, per the customer’s specifications, either by fatty acid or
genetic sequencing techniques. Identification of the organism is the first step to designing a corrective action plan to
destroy its existence in controlled environments.
Subsequently, the need to verify the antimicrobial effectiveness of disinfecting agents used in controlled environments is
a critical step to assuring a documented disinfection system is in place. VAI Laboratories conducts either time contact kill
studies on standard or user surfaces and AOAC protocol testing studies. All tests are performed in triplicate and done at
three specified contact (dry time) time periods. A complete report of the study is presented to the end user to complete
their documentation file for internal or external audit requirements.
VAI Laboratories is a value-added service available through Veltek Associates, Inc. that not only completes required
testing but also provides an invaluable source of information from experienced laboratory and disinfection professionals
who are involved daily in GMP settings.
VAI has responded to the needs of our clients by installing laboratories focusing in
the area of microbiological testing services. Customized to the users requests, VAI
laboratory testing division is capable of performing the following services in conjunction
with the use of VAI products:
Consulting
The design of a biodecontamination system warrants experience and familiarization with
disinfection systems that have proven success in the control of microbial and particulate
contamination in cleanroom environments. VAI has the experience and the personnel to
completely evaluate operations and address the necessary requirements for operation
of the controlled areas.
