ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

Passive Isolator Monitoring

Trainees learn the purpose of passive monitoring, how to identify appropriate sample sites, and the procedures for setting and retrieving samples through interactive hands-on simulations.

Module Overview

Altoura's Passive Isolator Monitoring Training Module is an immersive, hands-on simulation that standardize passive monitoring behaviour across teams, improving consistency, compliance, and contamination control in isolator operations.

In this interactive module, learners explore the purpose of passive monitoring and its role in identifying airborne or surface contaminants that could compromise isolator integrity and impact product quality during operations. Trainees then practice the full procedure for placing passive monitoring media (eg, settle plates) with precision and aseptic discipline.


Through guided scenarios, learners identify and select appropriate sampling locations based on contamination risk focusing on high-traffic areas, airflow paths, and critical surfaces. The simulation emphasizes correct handling throughout the process, reinforcing that unnecessary contact or placing the sample anywhere other than the intended site can invalidate the sample.
