Quick CIP sanitation check.
If ATP is present in the water, the cleaning cycle is not properly removing residue and the surfaces are still dirty.
Better design gives better results.
The honeycomb shaped dipper tip used with AquaSnap collects exactly 100µl of sample, making sure you are collecting the same amount every time.
Other ATP water tests use a swab designed for surface sample collection which causes large sample variation. Surface swabs are pre-moistened with an extractant, so the absorption rate will vary based on how much sample can be absorbed.
In addition, extractant will be lost when first dipped into sample. AquaSnap’s honey dipper collection tip eliminates these issues providing more accurate results.
Introduction to ATP Testing
Residues, particularly food or organic residue, contain large amounts of ATP. When left on a surface, residues can harbor and grow bacteria, cause cross-contamination, develop biofilm and many other problems that can compromise product quality.
After cleaning, all sources of ATP should be significantly reduced. When ATP is brought into contact with Hygiena’s unique, liquid-stable reagent, light is emitted in direct proportion to the amount of ATP present.
The system measures the amount of light generated and provides information on the level of contamination in seconds.
