MICROSNAP E.COLI DETECTION (100)

MicroSnap E. coli is a rapid test for detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli. The test uses a novel bioluminogenic reaction that generates light when enzymes that are characteristic of E .coli bacteria react with specialized substrates. The light generating signal is then quantified in the EnSURE luminometer. Results are available in 8 hours or less, depending upon required level of detection. Single figure organisms can be detected in 8 hours, delivering results in the same working day or shift.

Benefits:

• 6 hour quantitative results (CFU counts)

• 8 hour presence/absence results

• Broad CFU detection range (10 – 10,000 CFU) means fewer dilutions and less sample prep saving time and money

• Suitable for product or environmental samples

• Pass/Fail result at required detection levels are easy to understand

• Uses common microbiology sample preparation for product samples

• Same day results allow for timely corrective action

• In-house testing reduces costs from outside lab fees

• AOAC Research Institute Performance Tested Method (#071302)

• 12 month shelf life at refrigerated temperatures (2-8°C)

Sensitivity & Specificity:

• Detects down to <10 CFU in 8 hours or less

• MicroSnap E. coli detects Escherichia coli bacteria
