Order Details

Recent European and International standards (e.g. (EC) No. 2073/2005 )require the regular sampling of carcasses of cattle, sheep, pigs, goats and horses using sponge swabs. Many sponge materials contain antimicrobial substances which would interfere with the recovery of pathogens and indicator organisms and give a false indication of the level of any contamination.

MedicalWire’snewPolywipes™withPeptoneSalinehavebeenspecificallydevelopedtomeettherequirements of the new regulations for sampling red meat carcasses. They are premoistened with peptone saline, as required, and the sponges are manufactured from special selected cellulose processed to ensure that it contains none of these inhibitors, and ensuring an accurate analysis of any contamination present.

Polywipes have been sucessfully used for many years in the food and pharmaceutical industries for environmental monitoring of food contact surfaces and sterile areas. Now Polywipes with Peptone Saline bringthisexpertiseintothefieldofmeathygiene.
