Environmental Monitoring Best Practices Handbook
The second volume of the Environmental Monitoring Handbook is now available and provides practical guidance for EM in glove boxes and isolators. It defines microbial sampling criteria, addresses key updates from Annex 1 (2022), and examines particle loss in sample transport tubing. The volume also covers risk assessment for isolator filling, microbiological sampling methods, sample‑collection strategies, and data interpretation to support robust contamination control and informed decision‑making.
