"Microbiological evaluation and monitoring of cleanroom environments" (meeting summary).

It was clear that there was little consensus among the panel with regard to the need for an informational chapter in USP on microbial classification of cleanrooms. The articulated positions of the individual panelists remained essentially unchanged throughout the session. What agreement was achieved was in a willingness to continue the dialogue, to await the outcome of the PDA activities cited above with the hope that a mutually acceptable compromise can be realized through that process.
