Application in Pharma (eye-dropper)
Evaluation of plastic surfaces against microbiological contamination
Issues
Eyedroppers are mainly contaminated by hands when handling the bottle, or by contact of the tip with the eyelids, lashes, conjunctivitis or tears. There is also a risk of cross-contamination when the same eye droppers are shared by several patients, especially in hospital environment or within the same family.
Risk
More than 85 % of the microbial contamination is found on the dropper tip. Microbial contamination can lead to cause inflammation or infection.
Solution for consumers
by Pylote
We maintain microbiological hygiene on the internal as well as on the external wet surfaces of the dropper nozzle with natural protection integrated into the packaging material.
Application in Cosmetics (make-up sponge)
Evaluation of makeup sponge protection by drastic voluntary contamination
Issues
Cosmetics accessories retain micro-organisms, skin cells, sebum, etc… There are a perfect environment for micro-organisms’ growth.
Risk
Direct contamination between 2 usages or when shared by several users can lead to skin infection and development of bad smells.
Solution for consumers
by Pylote
We maintain microbiological hygiene of the blender with natural protection integrated into the packaging material.
Application in cleanrooms environment
(public or industrial places)
Efficacy of the pylote technology on microbial contamination
Issues
Microbial contamination affects hygienically controlled environments in various locations: public places such as hospital, medical institution, maternity, transportation and industrial facilities as bio, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industrial production. Bioburden is, in fact, considered as an everincreasing worldwide public health problem.
Risk
The infectious risks due to contaminated environments can lead to different levels of health trouble like nosocomial infections and even up to patient deaths. In addition, they negatively impact finance and brand image, cause expensive shutdowns and increase production costs as well as product recalls, regulatory observations and fines. The cost to a manufacturer for a contamination event can run to 20-30% of total sales.
Solution for consumers
by Pylote
We maintain microbiological hygiene of the surfaces with natural protection integrated into equipments and/or products.
Application in Pharma (eye-dropper)
Evaluation of unpreserved product protection by drastic voluntary contamination
Issues
Ophthalmic preparations are subject to microbiological contamination. Ophthalmic solutions used both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes have found to be contaminated by pathogenic bacteria with reported rates as high as 70%, combined with severe ocular infections such as keratitis and endophthalmitis.
Risk
Preservatives bring major adverse effects to patients such as irritations and discomfort but it can also implies chronic inflammation of variable intensity, and even the progressive development of fibrosis, which may over time bring the visual prognosis into play.
Solution for consumers
by Pylote
We secure, not only the unpreserved treatment from microbiological contamination risks with natural protection integrated into the packaging material, but also each drop delivered.
Application in Pharma (eye-dropper)
Evaluation of plastic waste generation between mono and multidose unpreserved solution
Issues
Unit-dose is one of the preservative-free eye solution. This is very effective in reducing the risk of inuse and cross-contamination. However, it is best adapted to treatment over a short period of time, and is questionable from an environmental point of view, especially regarding the overall emission of carbonfootprint throughout the product life cycle as well as the tremendous volume of waste generated.
Risk
Plastic waste
Solution for consumers
by Pylote
We reduce the ecological footprint by offering a preservativefree disruptive approach with natural protection integrated into a simpler and lighter multi-dose packaging.
