HEM, a supplier of consumables for laboratory medicine, launched the country's first plant to produce a single line of viral and microbiological transport systems that are used in coronavirus testing.

The production capacity of the facility is 1.5 million transport systems per month. The sterilization of these systems will be handled by the operator of the specialized sanitation center Sterion, which is part of Rusatom Healthcare's management circuit.

During the opening ceremony of the new plant, an agreement between Rusatom Healthcare and GEM for the sterilization of the microbiological transport systems produced was concluded.

According to Artur Kolontayev, Deputy Director General of Rusatom Healthcare, the implementation of this contract will significantly increase the volume of sterilized transport systems.

The parties plan to develop strategic cooperation in this area in the future. Thus, by next year registration certificates will be received and production of transport systems with microbiological media will be launched. In 2022 the company will begin production of transport systems for pharmaceutical and food industries.
