Sani-Stick® Sampling Sponge Bags

The Sani-Stick® system is engineered for superior performance and regulatory compliance. Its patented rigid handle facilitates vigorous sampling on various surfaces, allowing technicians to access hard-to-reach spots. The no-contact sponge release system is crucial for minimizing cross-contamination risk, a key aspect of sampling involves aseptic technique. The system is supplied sterile (gamma irradiation) and comes pre-filled with Neutralizing Buffer (pH 7.20), ensuring maximum recovery of viable organisms. Available with your choice of polyurethane or cellulose sponge, these bags are adequate for sampling controls of the FDA, USDA, HACCP, and CFIA.

Bag Volume Guide:

• Total Volume: 1200 mL (40 oz)
• The total volume corresponds to the maximum capacity the bag can hold when it is filled to the brim, without the possibility of closing it
• Closure Volume: 700 mL (24 oz)
• The closure volume corresponds to the maximum capacity the bag can hold when it is closed with a triple twist to ensure safe transport
• Functional Volume: 100 mL (3 oz)
• The functional volume corresponds to the volume of diluent or sample according to the test requirements.
