10ul Plastic Loops, 200mm, 20/Bag, Sterile, CS10K (10000 per CS)

For use as a screening medium for the selective isolation of ciprofloxacin-resistant E. coli and other gram negative rods from clinical samples. Especially useful for screening rectal swab specimens prior to prostate gland biopsy, according to the method recommended by urologist Michael Liss, MD from the University of California at Irvine. Recommended to be used with a broth enrichment step using BHI with 10µg/ml of ciprofloxacin (cat. no. K258). Urologists use this as a rectal screening medium before they perform a prostate gland biopsy. The biopsy procedure is known for introducing resistant organisms into the bloodstream from the rectum. Our media will allow urologists to screen the men first to see if they will be at risk of a “difficult to treat” infection or septicemia. (10 per PK)

A clean production environment is a key component to producing safe, quality foods. By incorporating ATP monitoring into preoperative equipment inspection and changeover cleaning verification, quality personnel can confirm cleanliness in seconds. Your facility is only as clean as you start, so it's best to start the day right. Swab, snap, squeeze. It's that easy. Using UltraSnap couldn't be easier. The three step process for collecting a sample, activating the device, and mixing the sample is so easy, anyone can do it. Affordability to fit any size budget. Patented design and uniquely formulated chemistry gives UltraSnap superior performance at a price that can fit into any quality assurance program. When implementing an ATP program, decisions need to be made about the amount of testing necessary to accurately monitor the production environment, but also meet budget allocation. Hygiena's luminometers and UltraSnap testing device have been specifically designed to meet testing needs as well as budget constraints. Benefits: Costs up to 50% less than other ATP swabs Results in 15 seconds Consistent, reliable results Pre-moistened swab bud Self-contained, liquid-stable reagent Write-on swab label for easy sample identification Environmentally conscious design - uses 20 - 80% less plastic than comparable devices Patented Snap-Valve™ technology - snap & squeeze Unprecedented accuracy and reproducibility Tolerant to temperature abuse Test wet or dry surfaces (100 per PK)
