As a leading supplier of [prepared microbiological media](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/prepared-media) and [environmental monitoring ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cleanroom-environmental-monitoring)(EM) instrumentation for the pharmaceutical and related industries, Cherwell will be well placed at this event to offer valuable insight into assessing sterility in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities. Pharmig’s specialist conference for individuals involved with microbiology in pharmaceutical, healthcare and cosmetics industries, will provide learning and discussion around the challenges and best practices in microbiological EM. Topics to be covered include: EM and what [GMP Annex 1 ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/eu-gmp-and-annex-1-the-new-version)requires; the basics for an effective EM programme; understanding microflora and contamination sources; how to best manage EM data and trend analysis; and continuous microbial monitoring for continuous manufacturing. Reflecting these EM topic areas, Cherwell microbiology experts, Tom Parkhill and Yoggya De Silva, will be available to demonstrate Cherwell’s extensive portfolio which provides solutions to support EM best practices. This offers a combination of continuous monitoring, active air sampling and passive sampling options, together with accessories to ensure precise data collection. [![New Call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2885977/7705b6a9-aa64-426e-b0a5-b101ec2cfe08.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2885977/7705b6a9-aa64-426e-b0a5-b101ec2cfe08) For example, the [Redipor® BetaBag](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/redipor-betabag) was launched by Cherwell to support continuous manufacturing by simplifying sterile workflows during EM programmes. This multiple-use sterile media product transfer bag can reduce risk, cost and time, as it eliminates the time-consuming decontamination stage required during the standard transfer process of plated media into a sterile workspace for EM.  Also supporting continuous manufacturing through continuous microbial air monitoring, Cherwell offers the portable [BioAerosol Monitoring System (BAMS)](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/bioaerosol-monitoring-system-bams). This innovative product is a useful tool in high grade critical environments as it gives instant alerts to contamination events. The real-time results delivered by BAMS are also key for short shelf-life products requiring rapid release, such as in radiopharmacies. At the Pharmig conference, Cherwell will also showcase a wide selection of other quality-assured [Redipor prepared media](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/prepared-media) solutions, including its new [Redipor Plastic Bottle](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/bottled-media-products) prepared media, all manufactured at Cherwell’s ISO 9001 certified facilities in Bicester. Additionally, Cherwell will feature its full air sampler portfolio, including [SAS microbial samplers](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/microbial-air-samplers) for reliable, cost-efficient active air sampling, alongside [BAMS](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/bioaerosol-monitoring-system-bams) for continuous monitoring. All offering opportunities for demonstrations and discussions on selecting the most suitable sampling solutions for specific EM programs. “We look forward to supporting delegates at this event by advising on the best combinations of solutions for individual needs and EM programmes,” said Yoggya De Silva, Microbiology Product Specialist, Cherwell. “We can also discuss our expertise in providing tailor-made solutions, from a relatively straight forward request perhaps for an existing product in a new media fill volume or packaging variant, to more complex requests for products requiring the use of new formulations.” Comments ## Read other blog articles [ *By Gill Power* #### Specialist products for boosting microbial EM protocol reliability spotlighted by AnalytiChem UK at Pharmig 2025 ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cherwell-labs-post/analytichem-uk-highlight-specialist-em-products-pharmig-2025-annual-conference) [ *By Gill Power* #### New AnalytiChem UK appointment strengthens customer focus and growth strategy ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cherwell-labs-post/new-analytichem-uk-appointment-strengthens-customer-focus-and-growth-strategy) [ *By Gill Power* #### Cherwell announces Andy Whittard’s retirement and names Stuart Hall as new Managing Director ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cherwell-labs-post/cherwell-announces-andy-whittards-retirement-stuart-hall-named-new-managing-director) ### Sign Up for our Blog We promise that we won't SPAM you. #### What's next #### Recent news [![Specialist products for boosting microbial EM protocol reliability spotlighted by AnalytiChem UK at Pharmig 2025](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Redipor%20TwistLock%20Contact%20Plates%20with%20GS1%20DataMatrix%20Codes.png?width=50&height=50&name=Redipor%20TwistLock%20Contact%20Plates%20with%20GS1%20DataMatrix%20Codes.png) **Specialist products for boosting microbial EM protocol reliability spotlighted by AnalytiChem UK at Pharmig 2025** 10 November 2025 ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cherwell-labs-post/analytichem-uk-highlight-specialist-em-products-pharmig-2025-annual-conference) [![New AnalytiChem UK appointment strengthens customer focus and growth strategy](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Tom%20Pickford%20AnalytiChem%20UK%20Business%20Development%20Manager%20Midlands.jpg?width=50&height=50&name=Tom%20Pickford%20AnalytiChem%20UK%20Business%20Development%20Manager%20Midlands.jpg) **New AnalytiChem UK appointment strengthens customer focus and growth strategy** 20 October 2025 ](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/cherwell-labs-post/new-analytichem-uk-appointment-strengthens-customer-focus-and-growth-strategy) #### Subscribe Receive the latest articles as they are published. #### Contact us Registered Office 7 & 8 Launton Business Centre, Murdock Road, Bicester, OX26 4XB **Phone** Tel: +44 (0) 1869 355 500 **Email** [sales.uk@analytichem.com](mailto:sales.uk@analytichem.com)    ![analytichem_Logo+claim_RGB](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/analytichem_Logo+claim_RGB.png?width=2000&height=431&name=analytichem_Logo+claim_RGB.png "analytichem_Logo+claim_RGB") ![BSI-ISO-9001-Certified-50px](https://www.cherwell-labs.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/BSI-ISO-9001-Certified-50px.png?width=130&height=77&name=BSI-ISO-9001-Certified-50px.png "BSI-ISO-9001-Certified-50px") AnalytiChem UK ©2025 (Formerly Cherwell) Reg. in England No: 01159518 VAT Reg.
