Is cross-contamination from the Harris punch a problem?

No. Dry samples on FTA have not been a problem. This can be confirmed by testing a negative control punch in between two sample punches. If carryover is a particular concern, you can punch an unused area of FTA or blotter paper between samples, or rinse with ethanol and dry with a clean tissue or compressed air.
