To use the probe, tear open the top of the Whirl-Pak® bag, squeeze out any excess HiCap™ Neutralizing Broth (when using the hydrated version), swab the surface, insert the probe back into the bag, fold the top of the bag over three or more times, and bend in the wire tabs to close. Send to a lab for testing.
