Contamination of medicines with microbes like bacteria or fungi, the consequences can range from harmless to fatal. For non-sterile drugs taken orally, the effects may be less likely to be dire, as our gastrointestinal tracts provide a highly acidic, unhospitable environment that can kill most microorganisms. However, medications that are administered intravenously or in the form of eye drops, must be completely sterile. Any contaminant can find its way directly into the bloodstream,
causing sepsis or even death. Compact dry is suggested for detection of the predicted microbial contamination in samples, to get a fast result with the lowest cost.
