Antimicrobial Effectiveness Testing (AET)
Antimicrobial Effectiveness Testing (AET) is a critical aspect of quality control, particularly for products susceptible to microbial contamination. From liquid formulations like syrups and injectables to semi-solid formulations such as creams and ointments, ensuring the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents is vital for maintaining product integrity and safety.
AET evaluates the ability of antimicrobial agents to control microbial growth in pharmaceutical products over time. This testing is essential because microbial contamination can compromise product safety and efficacy, leading to potential health risks for consumers. By assessing the potency and effectiveness of antimicrobial agents, AET helps pharmaceutical companies ensure that their products meet regulatory standards and maintain high-quality standards.
