I work for a very small probiotic manufacturing facility. We do probiotic's for human consumption and for animal consumption. I am developing a EMP and running into some issues. First after i have zoned out the facility, do i swab the same areas each time or rotate? For example do i swab the same food contact area each time and have a set place to swab or do I rotate food contact surfaces? Next as we grow bacteria as a product, pathogens are a big concern. We have an in house micro lab, so i would like to test here, with a kit and not actually grow pathogens. Are there good, cheaper kits or would I be better off sending them out to a third party lab? Finally, how extensive would SQF be with regards to environmental monitoring? How many months of data would i need?
