Applications
- Hygiene and Cleanliness: Test surfaces for microbial contaminants or unsanitary conditions
- Verification of Sanitation: Sample areas after cleaning/sanitizing to confirm procedures are working effectively
- Pathogen Detection: Detect presence of harmful pathogens like Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli
- Quality Control: Routine sampling to monitor for microorganisms in food facilities, labs, etc.
- Audit Compliance: Help meet official regulations and guidelines for contamination checks
- Early Contamination Identification: Allows rapid identification of problem areas before issues spread
Instruction For Use
To conduct testing, first aseptically remove the swab and sample a 100 square centimeter area by swabbing the desired surface. Promptly re-insert the swab back into its tube and thoroughly agitate the closed tube to blend the sample, achieving a 1:10 dilution ratio. Uncap the drop tip opening and pour out 1 milliliter aliquots, distributing portions evenly onto ready dry agar plates. Carefully incubate plates under suitable conditions and inspect for emergence of distinctive colony types. Strict adherence to contamination avoidance protocols including proper glove use is imperative when processing samples.
Routine environmental monitoring is critical because:
- 1. Over 50% of foodborne illnessess originate from microbes in processing facilities that contaminate products.
- 2. Poor sanitation costs food sector over $55 billion annually in healthcare, lost productivity and reputation damage.
- 3. Residual pathogens left after inadequate cleaning propagate in facilities and eventually infect end users.
- 4. Lack of sampling documentation leads to audit failures, penalties and shutdowns.
- 5. Public spaces harbor microbes transmitting influenza, norovirus and antibiotic-resistant bacteria to millions via surfaces annually.
