Standardize sampling procedures and comply with ISO 1893
Microbial surface sampling using contact plates (e.g. RODAC) is an important part of environmental monitoring in diverse industries. ISO 1893 provides some guidance on how to implement this. Two aspects are important to sample horizontal surfaces:
- The pressure/weight on the surface needs to be standardized
- The sampling time needs to be standardized to 10 seconds
Surface sampling is an important part of viable particle monitoring within the GMP Annex 1 guideline for production of sterile medicines.

TRIO.CPS Contact Plate Sampler system for surfaces is used to evaluate the correct cleaning of all surfaces in contact with food and dairy products to validate the HACCP and training of the staff.
TRIO.CPS is used in pharma cleanrooms, biotech plants and healthcare facilities to standardise surface monitoring when using traditional irradiated culture media.
TRIO.CPS is used in combination with the most commercial Contact plate (e.g. RODAC) diameter 55 mm: the standard weight and 10 seconds with visual display guarantee to meet the ISO 18593 for horizontal surface sampling.
The metal base guarantees easy sterilization/disinfection.
The CFU are counted at the end of incubation and the results are reported as CFU/cm2 or CFU/culture plate.
Ideal for use with standard culture media:
- Total Bacterial Count (e.g. Trypticase Soy Agar with Lecithin and Polysorbate 80)
- Total Yeast and Molds Count (e.g. Sabouraud Glucose Agar with Lecithin and Polysorbate 80)
