Contact plates

Contact plates - used for the monitoring of microbial contamination in industrial and hospital cleanroom and other healthcare environments. They are generally used for monitoring worktops, walls, floors, personel clothing and bodies by applying the agar manually or using a contact plates applicator (ref. APL416). Use of a contact method to control surfaces is recommended in the ISO standards 14698-1 (2), ISO 18593 (3), USP chapter 1116 (4) and in Good Manufacturing Practice (5,6).
