Thermo Scientific inSITE Integrity Tester for Single-Use Bioprocess Container Leak Detection

The Thermo Scientific inSITE Integrity Tester is a portable point-of-use integrity testing system designed for single-use bioprocess containers (BPCs), widely used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and bioprocessing applications. Featuring multi-channel testing capabilities, it enables simultaneous verification of multiple BPCs, manifolds, and assemblies, ensuring container integrity critical to molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing workflows.

Key features include:

• Utilization of sterile air to detect gross and fine leaks prior to container filling, enhancing sterile barrier assurance
• Support for containers up to 5,000 liters, suitable for large-scale bioprocessing and biopharmaceutical production pipelines
• Single- and multi-channel point-of-use integrity testing to improve operational efficiency in synthetic biology research environments
• Onboard blower and built-in printer for full mobility and immediate documentation of results
• Universal electrical compatibility allows deployment in diverse geographical locations without electrical compatibility issues
• Advanced test procedures including inflation process for optimal container loading, liquid filling cycle for internal pressure regulation, and guided validation setup
• Integrated uninterrupted power supply (UPS) ensures 10–15 minutes of operation during power outages, supporting uninterrupted testing critical for cell therapy production and other sensitive live-cell bioprocessing applications

This tester plays a vital role in quality control and validation workflows in the biotechnology industry by ensuring container sterility before filling, thereby reducing risks of contamination in gene editing and molecular cloning research. The Thermo Scientific inSITE Integrity Tester is essential for maintaining stringent standards in clinical diagnostics and bioprocessing integrity assessments.
