The Hygiena EndoSwab is a specialized sample collection device for ATP testing in endoscope channels. Designed for healthcare infection control programs, it features a foam tip on a long, flexible wand to access hard-to-reach lumens of 4mm diameter. Simply insert, withdraw, and cut the foam tip into an UltraSnap® or SuperSnap® device for immediate results on EnSURE® Touch or SystemSURE Plus luminometers. Get objective cleaning verification in 10-15 seconds with pre-established RLU thresholds, helping prevent the use of contaminated reusable medical instruments. Hygiena® EndoSwab sampling devices are used to collect samples from hard-to-reach internal channels of reusable medical instruments like endoscopes to verify thorough cleaning. EndoSwab is designed to be used in conjunction with UltraSnap® or SuperSnap® ATP test devices and EnSURE® Touch or SystemSURE Plus® luminometers. This system measures adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal energy molecule found in all animal, plant, bacterial, yeast and mold cells. Blood and other biohazard waste contain large amounts of ATP. When ATP is brought into contact with the unique liquid-stable luciferase/luciferin reagent in the ATP test device, light is emitted in direct proportion to the amount of ATP present. Hygiena luminometers measure the amount of light generated in Relative Light Units (RLUs). The result provides information on the level of ATP left behind after cleaning to ensure cleaning procedures are effective. After cleaning, all sources of ATP should be significantly reduced

Sorbitol MacConkey Agar

Sorbitol MacConkey Agar is used for the isolation of pathogenic Escherichia coli in a laboratory setting. Sorbitol MacConkey Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Sorbitol MacConkey Agar is based on the formula by Rappaport and Henig. Originally developed for isolating enteropathogenic (EPEC) serotypes, O11 and O55, this medium is recommended for the isolation and differentiation of enterohemorrhagic E. coli O157:H7. Serotype O157 has been implicated in serious foodborne diseases. MacConkey Agar W/ Sorbitol contains sorbitol instead of lactose for differentiating enteropathogenic E. coli serotypes; these strains are typically sorbitol negative. MacConkey Agar W/ Sorbitol is recommended for food testing. Enzymatic Digest of Gelatin, Enzymatic Digest of Casein, and Enzymatic Digest of Animal Tissue are the nitrogen and vitamin sources in MacConkey Agar W/ Sorbitol. Sorbitol is the fermentable carbohydrate; typically enteropathogenic strains produce colorless colonies. Bile Salts Mixture and Crystal Violet are the selective agents, inhibiting Gram-positive cocci. Sodium Chloride maintains the osmotic environment, and Neutral Red is the pH indicator. Agar is the solidifying agent. The selectivity of the medium can be increased through the addition of Cefixime and tellurite.

Fraser Broth Base

Fraser Broth Base is used with Acriflavin, Nalidixic Acid, and Ferric Ammonium Citrate for the selective enrichment of Listeria spp. Fraser Broth Base is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Formulated according to MLG Appendix 1.09 (for the ISO 11290 formulation please use NCM0001). Listeria monocytogenes, described first in 1926 by Murray, Webb, and Swann, is an extensive problem in public health and food industries. This organism has the ability to cause human illness and death, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. Epidemiological evidence from outbreaks of listeriosis indicated the principle route of transmission is via the consumption of foodstuffs contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Implicated vehicles of transmission include turkey frankfurters, coleslaw, pasteurized milk, Mexican style cheese and pate. Half Fraser (Demi Fraser) Broth Base is based on the formulation of Fraser and Sperber. This medium is used in rapid detection of Listeria from food and environmental samples. Listeria spp. grow over a pH range of 5.0 – 9.6, and survive in food products with pH levels outside these parameters. Listeria spp. are microaerophilic, Gram-positive, asporogenous, non-encapsulated, non-branching, short, motile rods. Motility is pronounced at 20°C. Identification of Listeria spp. is based on successful isolation of the organism, biochemical characterization, and serological confirmation.
