Hygiene Verification ________
ATP Detection
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is a universal marker of biological contamination. Its presence on surfaces or in water indicates insufficient cleaning or microbial growth potential, making ATP testing a critical control point for any sanitation program.
ProGnosis Biotech offers a complete ATP testing portoflio powered by bioluminescence. These flexible, pre-moistened swab tests are extremely easy to use. Accompanied by the advanced Phos Reader 2 Luminometer, which enables immediate results in just 10 seconds, they offer data-driven decisions with results displayed on the screen, PC, or cloud.
ATP-FLOW Series:
- ATP-Flow Surface: ATP detection on surfaces for food safety
- ATP-Flow Total Water: Microbial and non-microbial ATP for CIP & rinse water
- ATP- FemtoFlow: 4× lower LOD, ATP on surfaces of critical environments
CONFIRMATION OF CLEANING EFFECTIVENESS ________
Protein Residue Detection
Protein residues are a reliable indicator of improper cleaning, especially in food production surfaces where allergens or biological materials may persist. Protein-Flow offers an easy and quick method to verify residue removal without the need for instruments.
Protein-FLOW
Product Highlights:
- Results in 10 minutes
- Colorimetric Detection: Green to purple color shift
- Semi-quantitative method
- LOD: 10 μg protein
- No incubation or equipment required
COMPACT DRY ________
FOOD MICROBIOLOGY TESTING
Microorganisms can contaminate food during various stages of production, processing, and distribution. Managing them is a crucial step in preventing food spoilage and outbreaks of foodborne diseases, while maintaining quality control standards and regulatory compliance.
In contrast to time consuming and outdated microbiology techniques, ready-to-use dehydrated selective chromogenic media, such as Compact Dry, represent a modern shift in pathogen detection. These media are pre-prepared and contain nutrients, selective agents, and indicators for the selective growth of microorganisms, fast and accurately. Perfect for testing raw materials, processed food products, drinks, ready meals, cosmetics and also surfaces. With Compact Dry’s convenient and efficient platform for microbial enumeration and identification, finding the total count of microbial species has never been easier.
The transition from classical microbiology to the advanced, ready-to-use Compact Dry media reflects a commitment to accuracy, efficiency, and ease of use in microbial analysis.

FAQ
Hygiene Monitoring
ATP levels provide an immediate indication of organic contamination. When surfaces or water systems contain elevated ATP readings, it means residues (either microbial or organic) remain present after cleaning. This allows operators to react quickly, adjust sanitation procedures and ensure compliance with internal standards.
Beyond speed, ATP testing offers a quantifiable and objective way to monitor hygiene performance over time. With digital connectivity via Phos Reader 2 and its PhosConnect software, facilities can track trends, document improvements and maintain clear traceability for audits and certifications.
Surface ATP tests measure ATP residues collected from equipment, workstations and food-contact surfaces. These tests confirm whether sanitation teams have effectively removed organic material before production resumes, making them essential for routine cleaning verification.
Total ATP tests for water, on the other hand, detect both microbial and non-microbial ATP within CIP and rinse water systems. This provides a more complete picture of water hygiene and helps verify whether cleaning cycles were properly executed and free from contamination.
ATP testing is ideal when rapid, numeric and highly sensitive cleanliness verification is required. Because ATP represents all living organisms and organic residues, ATP-FLOW Surface and ATP-FemtoFLOW provide a fast overall assessment of hygiene efficiency.
Protein residue tests such as Protein-FLOW are best suited for verifying the removal of food residues, particularly when allergen contamination is a concern. They provide a direct visual confirmation of protein presence, complementing ATP testing and supporting comprehensive sanitation control.
