General description

The MVP ICON ATP Positive Control provides a sample which produces a positive ATP result when assayed with the MVP ICON system.

Application

It is recommended that ATP positive controls be run every other day of use and incorporated into an overall Quality Control program which monitors and tracks the MVP ICON system results over an extended period of time.

Components

Twenty-five (25) sealed glass vials containing approximately 1 x 10-13 moles of lyophilized Adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Suitability

ATP Testing, Food Processing, HACCP Monitoring, Sanitation

Principle

The detection of ATP through bioluminescence is a well-established and widely used indicator of surface hygiene and cleaning efficacy in food processing. Visual inspection is not an adequate critical control for surface hygiene and the lengthy time-to-result of microbiological test methods (from 2 - 7 days) make them ineffective for hygiene monitoring. ATP detection with the MVP ICON provides results in 10 seconds allowing for immediate "go/no-go" decisions to be made prior to the start of processing and allows for correction actions, when necessary, to be taken immediately. ATP is a molecule that is found in all living cells, including: bacteria, yeast, mold and all organic matter. After cleaning and/or sanitizing, food processing equipment and the plant environment is tested for ATP. If cleaning/sanitizing has been effective, ATP levels should be low.
