About 1000 times more sensitive than the conventional ATP method at microorganism detection|Mess-free microorganism detection|Offers both qualitative and semi-quantitative hygiene control|Sterile packed and ready to use|For the detection of Escherichia coli on surfaces|125/PK|1 year warranty|Use the SwabCheck sterile cellulose swabs to quickly and easily check for the presence of bacteria on a surface. Simply wipe a surface with a swab, insert the swab into a tube containing a special medium with an indicator dye for a specific microorganism, then incubate. The super-sensitive SwabCheck medium changes color even when only a single bacterium is present. The quicker the color change happens, the higher the number of bacteria that are present. No color change after the maximum incubation period indicates the absence of the corresponding microorganism.|Each self-standing, round-bottomed plastic vial contains yellow media with a cotton swab secured inside the screw cap. Use a longwave UV light source after incubation to confirm the presence of E. coli; appearance of fluorescence in the tube confirms E. coli presence. Store vials in temperatures between 2 and 8?C (35.6 and 46.4?F).
