Sterile Water Sampling Bags with Sodium Thiosulfate Tablet

Description

SAMPIBIO® Sterile Water Sampling Bags with a Sodium Thiosulfate Tablet are designed for the collection and transport of water samples for microbiological testing where residual disinfectants may be present. Each bag contains a sodium thiosulfate tablet to help neutralise residual chlorine, supporting accurate results by reducing the risk of disinfectant carry-over affecting microbial recovery.

These bags are a practical solution for routine monitoring programs where water may have been treated with chlorine-based disinfectants. By neutralising residual disinfectant at the point of collection, they help preserve the integrity of the sample and improve the reliability of downstream microbiological testing.

Why Use Sodium Thiosulfate Water Sampling Bags?

Residual chlorine can continue to inactivate microorganisms after sampling, which may lead to artificially low counts or false negative results. Sodium thiosulfate helps prevent this by neutralising disinfectant immediately after the sample is collected.

• Helps neutralise residual chlorine for more accurate microbial recovery
• Supports compliant sampling for treated or disinfected water sources
• Secure wire closure for leak-resistant sealing during transport
• Simple “collect-and-seal” workflow for routine monitoring programs
