A Unique All-in-One System Carrying Its Own Culture Broth

The ICR-Swab from MilliporeSigma is a unique system for environmental monitoring of dry surfaces, such as filling needles, equipment recesses, uneven surfaces and tubing in clean rooms and isolators. It is a qualitative presence/absence test for microbiological contamination. This ‘all-in-one’ ICR-Swab system requires opening only once for sampling. All further steps, such as addition of broth, incubation and detection of turbidity, are performed within the closed system, thus minimizing the risk of potential contaminations due to handling.
