Preparation, Cleaning, & Sanitation
Before beginning your sterile workflow, it is critical to take steps to ensure the sample process does not introduce contamination and bias. This must be done whether you are maintaining a sterile process or sampling for microbial analysis, while also ensuring safety. For microbial contamination control, prepare your work area by conducting a thorough cleaning to confirm sanitation.
Sample Collection
During collection, it’s imperative to use the proper tools to protect the integrity of your samples against contamination and debris. Before you begin collection, consider your sample type, the ultimate volume, and sampling mechanics to select the optimal tools to accomplish each project.
Labeling, Carrying, & Storage
Good sampling practices require proper labeling and careful organization. Using tools that maintain a clear and organized sampling environment, such as racks, trays, colorful markers and tape reduces potential microbial contamination, improves safety, and ensures sample integrity.
