Product Description
3M / Neogen Hydrated-Sponge HS10DE2G — Ready-to-use surface sampling sponge with 10 mL D/E Neutralizing Buffer + gloves
Environmental monitoring (EM), sanitizer carryover control, pre-hydrated biocide-free cellulose, 5" x 9" 3M Sample Bag, includes 2 universal-fit polyethylene gloves
Overview
The 3M / Neogen Hydrated-Sponge HS10DE2G is a ready-to-use, pre-hydrated sampling sponge designed to minimize handling and preparation while reducing waste. The sponge is biocide-free cellulose and is pre-hydrated with 10 mL D/E Neutralizing Broth diluent to support sample collection when residual sanitizers or disinfectants could otherwise suppress recovery. The kit includes two universal-fit polyethylene gloves and a 5" x 9" 3M Sample Bag for safe transport to the lab.
Why it matters (neutralization + repeatability)
- Neutralizer-aware sampling: D/E Neutralizing Broth diluent is designed to help reduce the impact of residual disinfectants on organism recovery (use per method/SOP).
- Standardized hydration volume: Pre-hydration helps improve repeatability and trend reliability versus field-mixed hydration practices.
- Cleaner handling controls: Included gloves and an integrated sample bag help reduce contamination risk and variability during collection and transport.
- Audit-readiness: The large write-on area supports labeling discipline and chain-of-custody consistency.

Recommended pairings (common workflow add-ons)
- Hard-to-reach surfaces: Use a sponge-stick format for framework, hinges, recessed equipment zones, or tight interfaces.
- Controlled-area housekeeping: Pair EM sampling with disciplined wipe-down practices using appropriate controlled-environment wipers and validated cleaners in adjacent controlled areas.
- Documentation tools: Consider pre-numbered location maps or barcoded logs to reduce transcription errors and improve traceability.
