A test result is only as good as the sample it came from. PolyLab's Sampling Tools are designed to ensure that the sample you analyze is truly representative of the whole batch. Our range of powder thieves is widely considered the top rated by QC chemists for their ability to collect a clean, stratified core without segregating the material. For aseptic sampling in pharmaceutical suites, our sterile, disposable scoops offer the best way to prevent contamination. We understand that every industry has unique sampling challenges, and we provide the tools to meet them. Ensure the integrity of your quality program with the precision and reliability of PolyLab Sampling Tools. It is the best investment in quality assurance and the top rated by sampling professionals.
Insert the closed thief into the powder to the desired depth. Rotate to open the sampling chamber, allowing powder to flow in. Close the chamber by rotating back, then withdraw. The collected core sample is now captured in the segmented chamber for analysis.
PolyLab sampling tools are available in various materials: 304 and 316 stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance, PTFE for chemical inertness with aggressive samples, and polypropylene for economical, disposable applications. Choose based on your sample compatibility needs.
Disassemble tools if possible and wash with appropriate solvents or detergents. For stainless steel tools, autoclaving or washing with hot water and detergent is effective. PTFE tools can be cleaned with solvents. Disposable tools should be discarded after single use to prevent cross-contamination.
Sterile disposable scoops eliminate the risk of cross-contamination between samples. They are individually wrapped and ready to use, ideal for aseptic sampling in pharmaceutical, clinical, and food applications where sample integrity is critical.
Use a zone sampler or thief that collects from multiple depths. Insert the sampler diagonally across the drum to capture material from top to bottom. Combine multiple samples or use a riffler for representative subsampling. PolyLab sampling tools are designed for representative collection.
PolyLab offers sampling tools in various lengths from 300mm to 1500mm for reaching deep into containers. Scoop sizes range from micro-spatulas for milligram quantities to large 500ml scoops for bulk sampling. Choose based on your sample volume and container depth.
