Applications:
- Surface sampling for use as part of a cleaning validation protocol
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing cleaning validation with HPLC/UV-Vis or TOC protocol
- Appropriate for applications needing very low levels of contaminants
Benefits
- All Cleaning Validation swabs are precision-manufactured and constructed to exacting and consistent tolerances without the use of adhesives for superior performance
- Notched, rigid 100% polypropylene, break-away handle allows the head to be placed into the vial with minimal handling and contamination and provides excellent chemical resistance
- Lot coded for traceability and quality control
- TX716: The nonwoven polyester head provides excellent recovery rates by entrapping contaminants in the swab structure without adhering to the swab head, allowing complete release into the diluent
- TX714K, TX761K: Certified Low TOC level (<50 μg/L, <50 ppb) ensures consistency in swab background contribution
- Double layered, double knit polyester head entraps contaminants in the knit structure during sampling, allowing maximum contaminant collection and release into the diluent to provide for excellent recovery rates
- TX715: This swab is additionally processed to reduce the UV background. Proprietary cleaning process reduces interference in the 230 nm range, resulting in an improved limit of detection
Shelf Life
• Non-Sterile – 5 years from date of manufacture
