Why a swab solution?
Get to the point
Hard-to-reach spots and uneven surfaces are by definition problematic for sanitization and thus need to be accurately screened. Compared with contact plates, swabbing offers many advantages as it enables the collection from these articulated, uneven or irregular surfaces while improving sample recovery, release and avoiding agar residues.
Sanitizing agents inactivation
Find what’s really there
When a microorganism survives in a constantly sanitized ambient, it is often low-counting, making the detection really tricky.
SRK® gives you a clear view of your environment’s real status: the isotonic solution inactivates sanitizing agents residuals that might be present on the surface at the time of collection.
Application
HAI
SRK® was first conceived to address the need of Hospitals for a flexible and easily processable device to boost the efficacy of environmental screenings.
Application
Pharma
White-rooms are by definition the “one bacteria is one too many” environments. Here SRK®’s media composition gives its best for the detection of that one.
Application
Food & Personal Care
Because of the variety of possible needs, Food, Personal Care and Pharma industries will gain the most from the wide range of rinse solutions, liquid fill volumes, swab choices and packaging configurations.
A big and diversified family
The SRK® kit is available in a wide range of media, volumes, swab types and number. This allows it to fit any application and the main testing methods as culture and molecular assays.
Optimal recovery rate
Choose the sampling probe that best suits your needs: regular FLOQSwabs® and CLASSIQSwabs™, Plastic/viscose applicator, or sponge spatula.
Compliance
SRK® kits are designed compliant with ISO 18593:2018, ISO 18593:2004, ISO 17604:2003, and EU directive 2001/471/E.C.
Media choice for enhanced preservation
Choose between an isotonic solution or a wide range of selective and enrichment broths: Half Fraiser, RVS, BPW 1%, TSB, UNS, and Letheen broth.
Sterile sampling frames
The definition of a set sampling area is essential for microbial bioburden validations. Sampling frames will make your surface sampling match that standard.
