FMCG Coliforms Swab Kit
FMCG - Coliforms Swab Kit
This kit will assist in the detection of Coliforms from work surfaces and manufacturing equipment in food handling and manufacturing environments.
It consists of two units:
- a pre-moistened swab for the collection of bacterial pathogens from work and processing equipment. It has the benefit of neutralising the effects of cleaning solutions and improving bacteria recovery from dry surfaces
- a specific chromogenic media tube into which the swab is placed after sampling. It is a highly specific and sensitive detection media which gives results by providing a clear visual colour change in 24-48 hours for Coliform spp, if specific organisms are present on surfaces.
This kit meets the requirements of ISO: 18395:2004(E) and is compliant with the requirements of USDA, FSIS and BAM but unlike similar methods does not require a pre-enrichment step. The use of this kit provides a rapid, easy-to-use and cost-effective method of pathogen and hygiene monitoring, which should be part of any comprehensive HACCP plan. A colour change indicates a presumptive positive result. For Coliforms, these can be confirmed in just 2 minutes.
Advantages
- Simple and safe to use
- Easy to read colour change
- Sensitive < 5 organisms/100 sq cm
- ISO: 18395:2004(E) compliant
- Results in 24-48 hours (97% in 24 hours)
- Pre-moisten swabs increases recovery
- Sanister & Detergent neutraliser gives true results
- Confirmed results in 2 minutes
Pack Size: 100 tests
Product Code: MGPATHC100
