Specific observations included stained HEPA filters in an ISO 5 area, facility design permitting influx of lesser quality air, fiber-like particles and peeling caulk in the cleanroom, inadequate dynamic smoke studies, improper operator aseptic technique (re-entry into ISO 5 without sanitization), and failure to disinfect materials during transfer from ISO 7 to ISO 5.
