TS6-61BP250

Description:
Pre-moisted Viscose Tip Swab in Neutralising Buffer, Blue Polystyrene Breakpoint (at 45mm) Shaft. Supplied in tube only

Recommended For:
Useful in hygiene surveillance (HACCP) and environmental monitoring of most surfaces where chemical residue neutralisation is desired.

• Blue shaft for indentification in critical areas
• Breakpoint for easy sample analysis
• Easy to break off in to a vial
• No swab cap once broken, so stops the stomacher bag getting damaged, potentially affecting sample count.

Ideal For:
whole sample analysis as all sample is contained on swab. Breakpoint included for convenient sample removal, transfer to smaller vials & further analysis.

Excellent recovery of organisms including:
TVC, Listeria spp., Staphylococci, Enterobacteriaceae eg Salmonella, E.coli (E coli / ecoli / e. coli), Enterobacter, staphylococcus, klebsiella, E. coli Enterobacter, Enterobacter sakazakii

Known Limitations:
Analyse as soon as possible due to the small volume to minimise sample dryout and organism loss. Refrigeration will stabilise recovery of some organisms. Not suitable for most fastidious organisms unless analysed immediately. Unsuitable for certain sample areas due to inclusion of breakpoint.

Shelf Life: 24 months

Sterilisation Method: Gamma Irradiation to achive a SAL of 10^-6
