The World’s Fastest Sterility Test
A Faster Way to Comply
The ScanRDI® is a unique alternative technology that enables Eagle to deliver sterility testing results in 1 or 2 business days†, allowing sterile compounding facilities to release product faster than when utilizing the compendial USP <71> method. ScanRDI® has revolutionized rapid microbial detection and its combination of speed and sensitivity remains unrivaled to this day(a). Additionally, ScanRDI® fulfills the method suitability requirement as outlined in USP <1223>.
Time Savings Equal Financial Savings
Results in 1 Business Day†
Now there is a faster way to comply with USP <797> and ensure your patients are receiving quality compounds. ScanRDI® is a non-growth-based technology sensitive enough to detect a single bacterial, yeast, or mold contaminant in a matter of hours. Even spores, stressed and fastidious organisms are detected in minutes, offering an extraordinarily rapid alternative to the traditional 14-day sterility test(a).
Maintain Compliance Accepted Alternative
The ScanRDI® is an accepted alternative to the official compendial sterility test method.**
Detects Viable Microbial Cells
ScanRDI® rapidly detects viable microbial cells without the need for growth or cell manipulation.
Forgoes the Extended Incubation Period
This forgoes the extended incubation period included in the USP Test Method, so results are ready in 1 Business day.†

The Limitations of USP
In order to fully comply with USP regulations, a facility producing sterile product must develop a formal quality assurance (QA) program. One of the characteristics of a QA program includes routine testing of sterile preparations. However, the USP <71> sterility test method presents the following limitations:
14 Days of Incubation
The compendial method of testing takes 14 to 18 days to complete, due to the incubation period required in the testing procedure.
Decreased Patient Use Time
As a result, a sterile compound with a standard 30-day expiry loses approximately half of its shelf life due to sterility testing.
