Pre-moistened sampling swabs offer end-users a convenient and simple sampling method to confirm the presence of microorganisms on equipment and critical surfaces giving increased brand protection and minimising exposure to potential recalls. Pre-moistened swabs can be used for environmental and hygiene monitoring (HACCP), food-security (TACCP), infection control and cleaning validation due to the inclusion of disinfectant neutralisers.
In many cases a surface will contain traces of disinfectants and/or sanitisers. Left alone and over time, these cleaning fluid traces will not kill the microorganisms, but will just prevent any growth (bacteriostatic effect). Neutralising buffer will neutralise most common disinfectants including peroxides and derivatives, phenols, quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC’s), amphoterics, chlorines and associated halogens, providing end-users with total testing assurance.
