General description

Our Samplers and Swab Test Kits simplify routine microbiological analysis of surfaces for bioburden levels of bacteria, yeast, or mold. This technique eliminates the cumbersome and expensive hardware and materials associated with traditional testing techniques. The Swab enables sampling in areas difficult to reach. The HPC Red Test Sampler contains m-HPC medium for recovery of aerobic bacteria, non-stressed as well as stressed.

Application

Microbiological analyses of environmental waters, cooling tower waters, process waters, laboratory grade and electronics waters, dialysis water, and food and beverage products.
