How does it work?
The PocketSwab ATP is a simple, three-stage procedure:
You swab the surface you are testing;
Twist and shake the device;
Insert it into the reader to get your data.
The PocketSwab works by releasing a controlled dosage of luciferin onto the swabbed surface.
That prompts a luminescent reaction when the luciferin comes into contact with any active enzymes released by ATP molecules.
Once the PocketSwab is inserted into it, the reader will record the relative light units (RLU) on the swab, which then determines the presence of allergens.
The benefits of the PocketSwab ATP
Microbial and non-microbial ATP, including food residue and other organic matter that goes undetected, risks becoming a nutrient source for bacteria, mould and yeast.
