Description
Sponge-Stick SurfACE dry is a dry sponge-stick sampler for microbiological surface sampling and hygiene monitoring. Intended for microbiology applications under ISO 18593, it provides a stick-handled sponge format for collecting material from equipment, work surfaces and process areas when the moistening medium is selected and applied according to the laboratory method. The dry presentation offers flexibility for protocols that specify a particular diluent or broth at the point of sampling. Each pack contains 100 units in a bag, supporting organised sampling and shipping workflows in hygiene-monitoring programmes. The sponge-stick design improves reach and handling during surface checks prior to microbiological analysis. This SurfACE dry variant from manufacturer Romer Labs is positioned for sampling and shipping tasks within environmental and hygiene control schemes. Pack weight is 3,301 kg. Suitable for professional laboratories and quality teams performing standardised surface assessments, it complements wet SurfACE options where a dry sponge-stick is preferred before moistening and sample transfer for further microbiological examination.

Questions about Sponge-Stick SurfACE dry, ISO18593, for microbiology, 100 unit(s), bag
What is this article?
Sponge-Stick SurfACE dry, ISO18593, for microbiology, 100 unit(s), bag is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Romer Labs for laboratory use. It sits in Microbiology (other), inside Culture media & microbiology, in Life Science & Microbiology.
This shelf is the microbiology article that is not a medium, a dish or a loop: odd reagents, indicators and small devices used around a culture. The organism and the method still choose the article.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
