Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) with Lecithin and Polysorbate 80 is a specialized mycological medium designed for surface monitoring in cleanrooms, controlled environments, and other critical areas where fungal and yeast contamination must be controlled. These 14mL contact plates feature a convex agar surface that allows for direct sampling of flat surfaces, ideal for environmental monitoring protocols in GMP-compliant facilities.
The inclusion of Lecithin and Polysorbate 80 enhances the medium’s ability to neutralize disinfectant residues, such as quaternary ammonium compounds and phenolics, helping ensure reliable microbial recovery even from sanitized surfaces. This formulation supports the detection of fungi, yeasts, and molds commonly encountered in pharmaceutical production and healthcare environments.
Each plate is terminally sterilized and validated with a 5-day Quality Control (QC) release, indicating that the product has passed stringent sterility and performance testing within five days of manufacture. This provides confidence in product reliability while supporting strict contamination control procedures.
These plates are supplied in convenient packs of 10, ready-to-use, and compatible with most contact plate holders and sampling protocols.
