Swabs
The Healthedge ATP swab is a user friendly, self contained ATP sampling device used with the Healthedge ATP monitoring devices. It containts a unique liquid stable reagent in place of the freeze dried enzyme pellet used in other ATP sampling devices. This provides better accuracy, longer lasting signal strength and reproducable results.
Question: How is ATP detected by the Healthedge ATP monitoring system?
Answer: Healthedge ATP swabs are moistened with a buffer that aids in the removal of any biological material (ATP) on either wet or dry surfaces, while also penetrating through any biofilm to expose underlying cells. The ATP from microbiological cells is collected from the sample surface with the ATP swab, and is then available to react with the unique liquid-stable reagent contained in the device. This reagent is derived from a naturally-occurring enzyme (called luciferase) found in fireflies. When this enzyme reacts with ATP on the swab, a low-level of light is produced that can be detected and quantified by the Healthedge ATP monitor. The amount of light detected is directly proportional to the amount of ATP on the sample, thus giving you a quantitative measure of the cleanliness of the surface where the sample was taken.
