Neogen Corporation, a company that develops products for food and animal safety, informed that they have launched a new sanitation monitoring system. Neogen's AccuPoint ATP Sanitation Monitoring System puts the speed and convenience of ATP testing in a rugged, but lightweight instrument that easily fits in the palm of your hand and is available for less than one-half of major competitors' published prices, company the claims. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a chemical compound found in all living matter, including bacteria, food debris, yeast and mold. 'The AccuPoint ATP testing system is another example of Neogen responding to the needs of the food industry," said Ed Bradley, Neogen's vice president of Food Safety Sales and Marketing. According to company sources, the AccuPoint system combines an advanced hand-held instrument, unique sampling devices that are superior to conventional swabs, and intuitive software for easy data tracking and analysis. The increased pressure that can be applied with AccuPoint's samplers make them better able to penetrate surface crevasses, and break up existing biofilms to capture previously undetected organisms, the company claims.
