BioBall is available for two pharmaceutical testing methods:

1. Growth Promotion Testing
The pharmaceutical industry is required to perform QC with controls in the range of 10 to 100 cfu for growth promotion and sterility testing. BioBall has two products that are ideal for these QC applications:

BioBall SingleShot designed for a single inoculation with unprecedented precision and BioBall MultiShot 550 designed for 10 inoculations - with low variance 

2. Antimicrobial Effectiveness Testing
Pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations often require antimicrobial activity to prevent microbial proliferation or to limit the effects of contamination. The Pharmacopoeias require testing these products for the efficacy of antimicrobial preservation (e.g. USP 51, EP 5.1.3, JP19). Preparing consistent inocula for these tests can be laborious and is often unreliable, necessitating time consuming repeat assays.
BioBall MultiShot 10E8 is ideal for this application and simplifies preparation and provides a precise inoculum.
