Thank you for your reply. How about sampling for microbial test? Does rinse method work?

Yes,Thank you.

So, there will be two cases:

  1. Rinse sample from Filter bag itself, by dipping it in solvent/WPU…or no needed if dedicated bags used?
  2. Rinse water from outlet of washing machine after self cleaning of washing machine.

Could you please define the how and rinse sample qty. that can be taken ?

Thanks
