Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 198, Sterilization of health care products.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 13408-1:2008) which has been
technically revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— a complete restructuring of the document;
— inclusion of a diagram to explain the relationship between the ISO 13408 series and ISO 18362;
— revision of the normative references;
— alignment of definitions with ISO 11139:2018;
— positioning of the document to recognize current and future advances in sterile manufacturing
technology, acknowledging that new approaches to aseptic processing are transforming classical
aseptic processing;
— promotion of aseptic processing principles and the systematic implementation of quality risk
management (QRM), including for aseptic process design, and microbiological contamination and
particulate contamination control;
— provision of guidance for different types of aseptic processing, for example, manual processing
systems through to automated robotic processing systems;
— deletion of tables from the previous edition of this document referring to acceptance criteria for
process simulation (media fill) qualification and requalification;
— encouraging adoption of advanced aseptic processing technologies and continuous process
improvement to improve assurance of sterility;

— recognition that alternative or rapid microbiological methods provide timely microbiological data
vital for process monitoring and control, and for product release; and
inclusion of a series of informative annexes providing guidance on defining an aseptic process, including
risks to be considered, aseptic processing areas, classification of cleanrooms, aseptic process flow,
closed systems and robotics, and qualification of a cleanroom clothing system.

Introduction
Wherever possible, healthcare products intended to be sterile should be terminally sterilized in their
final sealed container. Where a health care product is intended to be sterile and cannot withstand
terminal sterilization in its final container, aseptic processing provides an acceptable alternative for
product manufacture. Fundamentally, aseptic processing minimises the probability of a chance event of
microbial contamination occurring. The rationale to use aseptic processing is product dependent and is
not based solely on manufacturing considerations.
Aseptic processing produces a sterile product in its final container by the assembly of component parts
(e.g. product, container and container closure) that have been sterilized separately by validated and
controlled processes suitable for each component part. Each of these assembly processes can introduce
error that could result in produ
