Preserving the sterility and integrity of packaged biomedical products
is necessary, yet many testing methods can damage the packaging, seal, or contents.
A new line of noninvasive oxygen measurement systems from OxySense Inc. (Dallas,
TX; www.oxysense.com)
allows manufacturers to assess oxygen levels within containers, bottles, and
packages without puncturing or destroying the seal. The OxySense 4000 is fully
portable and self-contained, with an integrated 8.4-in. display, built-in processor,
and automatic infrared temperature sensor. The 200T model attaches directly
to a laptop or PC. Applications include oxygen permeation studies for packaging
of sterilized medical devices and anaerobic testing in sealed containers.
