Hygiena Micro-Snap Product Range

Micro-Snap is a rapid test for detection and enumeration of specific bacteria. The test uses a novel bioluminogenic test reaction that generates light when enzymes that are characteristic of specific bacteria react with specialized substrates to produce light. The light generating signal is then quantified in a sensitive, hand held Luminometer. Results are available in 1 to 7 hours, depending upon required level of detection. Single figure organisms can be detected in 7 hours, enabling Micro-Snap to give results in the same working day or shift.

Applications include, production surface monitoring, raw materials and finished product testing and it can be used with solids, liquids and filterable products.

Benefits of Micro-Snap include:

• Results in 7 hours or less.
• Low levels of detection.
• Pass/Fail result at required detection levels are easy to understand.
• Quantitative results (CFU counts)
• Qualitative results (presence/absence)
• Equivalent results to other culturing methods.
• No specific sample preparation required.
• Independently validated.
