Sponge-Stick SurfACE DE, pre-moistened with Dey Engley Broth, 100 unit(s), bag

Sponge-Stick SurfACE DE is a ready-to-use stick-mounted sampling sponge pre-moistened with Dey Engley Broth for microbiological surface hygiene control. Designed for use under ISO 18593 sampling practice, it enables reliable collection from food-contact and environmental surfaces where residual disinfectants may be present. Dey Engley Broth supports neutralisation of common sanitisers so that recovered organisms remain viable for subsequent culture and identification. The sponge-stick geometry offers a firm grip and controlled pressure during swabbing of flat panels, equipment housings and hard-to-reach zones in production and laboratory settings. Packed as 100 units per bag from manufacturer Romer Labs, the product suits structured environmental monitoring and pathogen surveillance programmes. The aqueous medium has a boiling point of 100 °C and integrates smoothly into standard microbiology workflows. These SurfACE DE sponge-sticks cut preparation time, standardise wetting of the sampling matrix and help laboratories and quality teams obtain consistent surface samples for routine hygiene assessment.
