Description
Recovery Data for non-spore-forming bacteria, used as surrogates for select agents in surface sampling laboratory tests. Three surface sampling devices (3M sponge stick, LabPlas Sani-stick, and Solar Cult sponge, were used to attempt collection of E. coli, Y. ruckerii, and S. marcescens on Glass, ABS Plastic, and Stainless Steel. These data are useful for selection of surface sampling methods following a contamination incident.
This dataset is associated with the following publication:
Aslett, L., M. Calfee, M. Monge, A. Abdel-Hady, T. Chamberlain, R. Baartmans, and A. Touati. Evaluation of Sponge Wipe Surface Sampling for Collection of Potential Surrogates for Non-spore-forming Bioterrorism Agents. JOURNAL OF APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY. Blackwell Publishing, Malden, MA, USA, 135(5): lxae097, (2024).
