Disinfection Control & Hygiene Monitoring

Disinfectant Testing

MQuant^® Test strips are pocket-sized laboratories for quick and simple analyses of chemical disinfectant parameters to ensure the safety of your production line after disinfection. The strips feature minute amounts of the reagent on an absorbent pad mounted to a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. In food & beverage manufacturing, MQuant^® test strips can be used for different semiquantitative measurements. Digital value readout and data storage are now available with the MQuant^® StripScan app for selected test strips. Find our colorimetric testing solutions for in-process control of disinfection.

Reflectoquant^® System

The RQflex^® 20 reflectometer and test strips are an economical, portable system to perform critical analysis during disinfection control and in the fields of food, beverage, agriculture, and water testing. The Reflectoquant test strips are barcoded with batch-specific calibration to offer reliable, quantitative results within minutes. Select your parameters from our reflectometric testing solutions.

Spectroquant^® Move Instruments

Spectroquant^® Move instruments are robust handheld colorimeters for precise, rapid on-site analysis no matter what or where you need to test. The instruments are dust-tight and waterproof according to IP 68 classification. They offer dependable results for a broad range of preprogrammed parameters of high-quality Spectroquant^® test kits. The Spectroquant^® Move DC is specifically designed for the five essential parameters of disinfection control: chlorine, ozone, chlorine dioxide, cyanuric acid, and pH.

Reliable In-process Microbial Testing

Ready-to-Use Agar Media

For monitoring the efficiency of disinfection routines, proven methods and easy-to-use testing solutions are available for even surfaces, curved surfaces as well as difficult to access areas. We offer a wide range of traditional agar media solutions such as ready-to-use contact plates, contact slides as well as swabs, each being suited to different surface types.

Contact Plates for Personnel and Surface Monitoring

Our ready-to-use contact plates can be used for environmental monitoring of surfaces in critical clean rooms and isolators (ICR series) as well as in non-critical areas (RT series).

Surface & Personnel Monitoring with HYCON^® Contact Slides

The unique design of HYCON^® contact slides allow easy and flexible microbial testing on flat, curved, or irregular surfaces making them a universal tool ideally suited to the production environment found in food and beverage production.

Swabs & Dip Slides for Difficult to Access Areas

Available for heterotrophic plate count (HPC), yeast & mold, & coliforms. Just add a small sample of liquid to the pre-sterilized sampler or wipe a surface of interest with the swab. Stable at room temperature for storage and incubation.

Envirocheck^® Dip Slides for Disinfection Control

Envirocheck^® Dip Slides provide semi-quantitative detection of microorganisms on surfaces and in liquids. The flexible paddles, coated with relevant nutrient media, allow for sampling on all surface types. After sampling and incubation, two parameters can be determined in one easy step.

Rapid Surface Monitoring of ATP, NAD, or Protein

Combined with traditional methods, rapid testing solutions based on ATP, NAD, or protein detection match perfectly and conveniently to fulfill your overall surface hygiene and disinfection control efficiency testing.
