Description

The NRS II TRANSWAB is a specialised collection and transport system designed for the recovery and maintenance of microorganisms from environmental surfaces and clinical sites. This system facilitates the safe transfer of samples to the laboratory by providing a stable environment that prevents overgrowth while maintaining the viability of the collected specimen during transit. It is commonly used in hygiene monitoring and clinical diagnostics where reliable sample integrity is essential for downstream analysis.

Key Features

• Neutralising buffer formulation designed to counteract residual disinfectants and sanitisers on sampled surfaces.
• Secure tube design ensures leak-proof containment of the transport medium during handling and shipping.
• Optimised for the recovery of a wide range of bacteria, including fastidious organisms.
• Compatible with standard laboratory processing workflows for culture and molecular detection methods.

Applications

• Environmental surface sampling in pharmaceutical and food production cleanrooms.
• Clinical specimen collection and transport for microbiological examination.
• Hygiene monitoring and validation of decontamination protocols in healthcare settings.

Disclaimer

Users should ensure that the specific buffer formulation is compatible with their intended analytical method, particularly when used in environments with high concentrations of specific antimicrobial agents.
