LuciPac A3 Surface

Description

LuciPac A3 Surface is developed by Kikkoman with patented A3 Technology to detect residues and microorganisms that others miss. It is incredibly easy to use. Just one swab and it detects ATP+ADP+AMP to give you the whole picture in 10 seconds. It is by far the most advanced in terms of  sensitivity and detection power.

Check out this comparison between conventional ATP Test and LuciPac A3 Surface to show the sensitivity of  LuciPac A3 Surface.

The patented system is now AOAC certified providing confidence on the results.

This system is also recommended for COVID-19 cleaning by IAQA (Indoor Air Quality Association) Australia. Refer to page 40 of the Guidelines to COVID-19 cleaning.

Independent laboratory testing confirms that the Kikkoman A3 technology provides detection of residues at levels much lower than other tests on the market. Using residue from many different foods, laboratory testing proved that Kikkoman A3 technology produced a test result (relative light units – RLU) an order of magnitude or higher than competitive products. In many of the foods tested, Kikkoman A3 technology showed a strong presence of residue while the competitive products produced test results below typical action levels showing that Kikkoman A3 can reduce the risks from false negative results.

Lumitester™ Smart

Measures the hygiene status of a particular area in seconds with on-site detection of microorganisms or organic residues. It detects all organic-based contaminations. The Lumitester™ Smart is best suited for manufacturing sites, pharmaceutical and medical spheres, catering and kitchens.

The Lumitester™ Smart is used with LuciPac A3 Surface and LuciPac A3 Water which provides a rapid detection of food and microbiological residues on all product contact surfaces. It provides an effective testing of cleaning and disinfection measures. A quantitative determination of the intra and extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is performed in the portable instrument. The system not only measures the amount of ATP present, but due to the reaction integrated AMP and ADP, the system is also able to detect more stable AMP and ADP. The sensitivity of the measurements taken by the Lumitester™ is substantially increased, particularly in production areas, where highly processed foods are processed further. The Lumitester™ for ATP, AMP and ADP is the most innovative device available. ATP, AMP and ADP are the molecules present in the cells of all living beings – animals, plants, mold, yeast or bacteria.

Test results data from the Lumitester™ Smart can be easily set up, record and analyse using its App in Smartphone/Tablet/PC and accessible anywhere with cloud storage.

 

Lumitester Smart was awarded in iF-Design-Award 2021

LuciPac A3 Surface

The LuciPac A3 Surface is the swab to be used with Lumitester™ Smart to detect food and microbiological residues on surfaces.

 

 

 

LuciPac A3 Water

The LuciPac A3 Water is the swab to be used with Lumitester™ Smart for testing cleanliness levels of water and other liquid samples

 

The LuciPac A3 Surface is also credited to be the most sensitive ATP detection system. A research study conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison concluded that the LuciPac A3 Surface’s ability to not only detect ATP molecules but also its metabolic products AMP and ADP has removed any concerns for false negatives when conducting an ATP test.
