Sample collection, transport, storage

The first step in microbiological testing is to collect samples. Depending on the media, where the samples are, the products you need are different. Then, you need to transport and/or store them. 

  • Sample collection
  • Sample transport
  • Sample storage

Sample collection

In this section you will find the right sampling system to sample air, surfaces, solids, liquid, granular, paste or frozen materials for microbiology testing. The range varies from stainless steel samplers to ready to use sterile devices.

Air samplers

Evaluate the air quality by collecting contaminants in a defined air volume. We offer a complete portfolio for continuous or sequential sampling of air, or inline sampling of compressed gas.

Surfaces

Choose the sampling product that suits your needs, whether it is traditional methods like contact plates and swabs or innovative options like Wipa boots for floor sampling.

Samplers for liquids and solids

Explore this section to discover suitable sampling systems for microbiology testing of solids, liquids, granular, paste, or frozen materials. The options range from stainless steel samplers to conveniently sterile, ready-to-use devices.

Containers, bags and labelling

Explore a range of containers, bottles, and bags designed to preserve samples correctly. Find essential accessories & labelling to enhance your sampling process and useful tools to optimize efficiency.

Sample transport & storage

When working with temperature-sensitive microbiological samples, it is important to use the correct packaging, but also to be sure that the conditions have been correctly maintained during transport and storage.

Sample Transport

Avantor offers an extensive product range, from simple packaging solutions and single-use temperature loggers, to wireless monitoring of temperature and other parameters.
