A method and apparatus of aseptic processing and production of cells in a non-sterile enclosure apparatus without chemical biocides is disclosed, by controlling the level of humidity throughout the enclosure to 25% relative humidity (RH) or less, and preferably 20% or 15% or less RH. In addition, the temperature is controlled to 37° C., and consistent gas flow is maintained the enclosure. Colony forming units from microbial contamination detected by environmental monitoring within the enclosure are significantly reduced in this method.
