Engineered for Total Neonatal Safety
Every subsystem within PuraTherm is calibrated for repeatable clinical outcomes, meeting British and international healthcare guidelines.
Automated Wet Holder Pasteurisation
Maintains the validated international standard of 62.5 °C for exactly 30 minutes. High-precision immersion heaters and continuous hydrodynamic water circulation eliminate hot spots and cold zones, ensuring every milk bottle receives uniform thermal treatment.
- Temperature stability within ± 0.5 °C across the entire tank
- Multi-point calibrated PT100 temperature sensors
- Automatic timing countdown initiated only when core temperature is achieved
Accelerated Rapid Chilling Cycle
Immediately following thermal holding, the system automatically transitions into an active cooling cycle. Cold water circulation brings the breast milk temperature down from 62.5 °C to below 4 °C in under 30 minutes, preventing bacterial spore reactivation.
- Swift transition halts residual heat degradation
- Chills directly to safe refrigeration storage levels (< 4 °C)
- Reduces manual handling and external contamination risks
Maximum Bioactive Retention
Donor milk is more than calories: it contains vital immunological factors that protect preterm infants against Necrotising Enterocolitis (NEC), late-onset sepsis, and systemic infection.
PuraTherm's strictly controlled wet heat transfer prevents thermal spiking, preserving maximum concentrations of:
- Secretory IgA (sIgA): Primary mucosal defence against gut pathogens
- Lysozyme & Lactoferrin: Antimicrobial enzymes that inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis
- Oligosaccharides & Lipids: Crucial prebiotic factors and fatty acids for brain development
Validated Pathogen Inactivation
Full thermal destruction of high-risk pathogens verified under standard Holder cycle parameters:
- Cytomegalovirus (CMV): 100% viral inactivation
- Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1 & HIV-2): Complete clearance
- Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus (HTLV): Complete clearance
- Hepatitis B & C Viruses (HBV, HCV): Inactivated
- Vegetative Pathogens: Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Group B Streptococcus, Escherichia coli
Intuitive PLC Touchscreen Interface
Designed specifically for hospital clinical staff, nurses, and laboratory technicians. The responsive touch interface displays real-time temperature curves, elapsed holding time, and current cycle state at a glance.
- One-touch cycle initiation with automated progression
- Visual and audible alarms for sensor failure or temperature deviation
- Passcode protection to prevent unauthorised parameter changes
Digital Audit Trail & Data Logging
Regulatory standards require full batch traceability. PuraTherm records continuous second-by-second thermal data for every cycle, creating an indisputable electronic record for hospital audits and quality managers.
- On-board non-volatile memory for cycle data storage
- USB export for spreadsheet and clinical PDF reporting
- Batch ID stamping for seamless hospital information system (HIS) integration
Medical Grade 316 Stainless Steel
Sanitation is paramount in neonatal preparation environments. The interior pasteurisation tank and milk baskets are crafted from electropolished 316 stainless steel, offering superior resistance to chemical disinfectants, pitting, and microbial adhesion.
- Smooth coved internal corners for effortless wipe-down and cleaning
- External chassis constructed from robust 304 brushed stainless steel
- Integrated water drain valve for rapid empty and sanitisation cycles
