Cleaning Validation Cleanroom Swabs
Cleaning validation cleanroom swabs are used to determine the effectiveness of cleaning protocols as specified by the US FDA. HPLC/ UV-Vis Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis are different methods used to validate these cleaning processes
Swabs for TOC Analysis

Features
- Low TOC swabs are made from 100% polyester knit materials, which are further cleaned for use in Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis
- Suitable for surface sampling in validation protocols and precision cleaning for hard-to-reach areas and small spaces
- Available with flat paddle head and easy grip handle or flexible head and long handle
- Kits including collection vials are available on request
Swabs for HPLC Analysis using a UV Detector
Show more
Features
- Suitable for use in HPLC using a UV/visible detector analytical method as part of a cleaning validation protocol
- Proprietary cleaning process reduces interference in the 230 nm range resulting in an improved limit of detection
- Double layered, double knit polyester head entraps contaminants for maximum pick up and easy release, providing excellent recovery rates
- Notched, break-away handle allows the head to be placed into the vial with minimal handling and contamination
Swabs for HPLC Analysis

Features
- Made from 100% polyester (hydroentangled) non-woven material
- The complete thermal bond construction eliminates adhesive contamination during the cleaning validation
- Double layer of non-woven polyester fabric for enhanced absorbency
- Hydroentangled polyester for use on sensitive surfaces
- Excellent chemical resistance cleanroom processed providing ultra-low levels of particles, non-volatile residues (NVR) and ions
- PP handle ensuring no additional contaminants are introduced while offering excellent chemical resistance
- Autoclavable in dry heat and steam
- Used during the manufacture of APIs, excipients, drugs and biotechnology products
