MODERN TECHNOLOGY OF CERTIFIED METHODS DEVELOPMENT FOR CONTENT OF ACTIVE STRAINS AND MICROBIAL PREPARATIONS CONTROL IN THE WORKING AREA AIR
Abstract
For the first time in world practice, the technology for the development of certified measurement procedures of concentrations of industrial strains of microorganisms (MO) and microbial preparations (MP) containing them in the air of the working area has been substantiated, including the development of methods for quantitative determination of the content of MO in the air and metrological studies based on unified methodological approaches to determining the operational characteristics and validity of the developed methods. Taking into account the modern requirements of the new ISO standards, the technology of metrological studies of MO quantitative determination in the air was improved using the yeast fungi Saccharomyces cerevisiae L153. Unified technology for the development of measurement procedures of МО and MP concentration in the air of the working area makes it possible to rationalize (to reduce the amount of work and costs) research on the development of certified measurement procedures for new normalized MO, the use of which provides effective dynamic control of the MO content and MP in the air of the working area for compliance with their hygiene standards and, if necessary, timely adoption of preventive measures.
