sample

Small number of items drawn from a larger group and intended to be representative of that group. In market research, small groups of people are chosen to be representatives of a particular demographic group. Samples may be selected by quota, in order to reflect accurately the composition of the groups or markets they were drawn from, or they may be selected randomly. The term can also describe the small amount of a product given to potential retailers and consumers.
