Product Description
3M / Neogen Dry-Sponge BP133ES — Dry environmental surface sampling sponge with printed sample bag
Biocide-free cellulose sponge, gamma irradiated, dry sampling flexibility, HACCP support, lab-ready sample transport
Overview
The 3M / Neogen Dry-Sponge BP133ES is a biocide-free cellulose environmental sampling sponge supplied dry in a printed 3M Sample Bag. Because it is dry, this format supports maximum flexibility—you can hydrate at the point of use with your in-house or pre-mixed buffers and sampling solutions based on the organism(s) of interest and your site SOPs. It is decontaminated through gamma irradiation to help maintain aseptic conditions.
Why it matters (defensible sampling + workflow control)
- Dry sampling control: Ideal for dry-only facilities or dry sampling requirements while still allowing hydration with the buffer that matches your test method at the time of collection.
- Viability protection: A biocide-free sponge is designed to avoid impacting organism viability during collection and transport.
- Audit-friendly handling: The included printed, writable sample bag supports clear identification and consistent documentation during collection, transport, and lab receipt.
- Program alignment: Environmental surface sampling supports HACCP-style hazard identification and verification in high-sanitation manufacturing programs.

Recommended pairings (common workflow add-ons)
- Pre-hydrated option: Choose a hydrated sponge format when you want a standardized media volume and reduced preparation steps.
- ATP verification (rapid screening): Pair environmental microbiological sampling with rapid hygiene verification where appropriate in your program.
- Clean handling supplies: For adjacent controlled areas (QA labs, weigh rooms, controlled staging), pair with Texwipe cleanroom wipers and sampling swabs to support disciplined wipe-down and documentation practices.
