Abstract

An environmental sensor system for monitoring nucleation in a lyophilization chamber is disclosed which includes a sensor unit, including a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, and a reader circuit in electronic communication with the sensor unit; wherein the sensor unit is adapted to sealingly fit around a vial placed in a lyophilization chamber and further adapted to be energized by the reader circuit and provide signals associated with temperature and pressure within the vial in a non-invasive manner in which the sensors are configured to be positioned in a headspace within the vial but not in contact with product within the vial.
