SpotCheck surface hygiene swabs detect glucose and lactose, present in 85% of food products on a supermarket shelf. SpotCheck requires no instrumentation. The self-contained reagent turns from clear to green when food residue is present in a surface sample - indicating inadequate cleaning. With SpotCheck users detect, almost instantly, if a surface is not clean, allowing immediate corrective action.
Protein detection swabs, such as Hygiena’s Pro-Clean Swabs are commonly used for cleaning verification but their usefulness is limited to production areas that process protein rich foods such as meat, poultry and seafood. SpotCheck Plus has a wider spectrum and may be a better option for companies manufacturing a wide range of food types, especially fresh produce, bakery and dairy industries.
SpotCheck Plus detects lactose and glucose residue in 60 s or less. Presence of either substance is indicated by a green colour change of the self-contained reagent. SpotCheck Plus allows users to detect residue from products containing lactose or glucose almost instantly, without instrumentation, allowing immediate corrective action.
