A sample unit consists of a minimum of 100 g and is usually a consumer-size container of product. Take sample units at random to ensure that a sample is representative of the lot. When using sample containers, submit a control consisting of one empty sample container that has been exposed to the same conditions as those under which the sample was collected. Collect more than one sample unit from large institutional or bulk containers when the number of sample units required exceeds the number of containers in the lot. A sample unit will consist of more than one container when containers are smaller than 100 g (e.g., four 25 g containers could constitute a sample unit).
