See Beyond the Surface with Clean-Trace™ Hygiene Monitoring System
When people are relying on you to identify and manage the risk of cross-contamination, you need accurate information. Visual checks alone are not enough. You need faster results than microbiological tests can deliver and a reliable, complete system to manage your hygiene monitoring so you can make the call and keep production moving.
Neogen® Clean-Trace™ provides rapid, reliable hygiene data so you can make decisions confidently and keep operations running. It identifies contamination risks, verifies cleaning, and delivers actionable results your can trust in real time.
Designed for meat, dairy, beverage, and packaged food facilities, Clean-Trace™ helps you:
- Detect low levels of biological residues on surfaces and equipment.
- Confirm cleaning and sanitation programs are effective.
- Stay audit-ready and compliant with local food safety standards.
- Act quickly to protect consumers and maintain production.

Why ATP Testing Matters
Microbes and product residue contain Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), an indicator of biological contamination. Clean-Trace™ detects ATP quickly, providing actionable data for hygiene verification.
Benefits:
- Detect even trace residues missed by visual checks.
- Validate cleaning and sanitation programs.
- Rapid, sensitive, quantitative results for immediate action.
A Complete Hygiene Monitoring System for Food & Beverage Industries
Using the Clean-Trace testing system is straightforward, without the need for extensive training. Clean-Trace offers a comprehensive suite of tools to address all your hygiene monitoring needs.
When compared to nine ATP systems, the Clean-Trace Luminometer displayed a higher degree of stability and consistency, you’ll get accurate results you can count on. There’s more!
- Simple, one-handed operation allows multitasking.
- Ergonomic design is comfortable to hold.
- High sensitivity due to photomultiplier technology.
- Wireless capabilities include syncing over WiFi™ and Bluetooth®.
You don’t have time for inefficient testing — you need to get in, get your sample and get out. Clean-Trace ATP Tests feature an intuitive design that’s easy to use and implement, with a long, flexible shape, allowing you to swab even difficult-to-reach areas. And the sleek, portable swabs are easy to activate with one hand. These swabs can be used with minimal training and is easily integrated into company HACCP programs to monitor for cleaning effectiveness.
- Tests for the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to verify cleaning effectiveness.
- Easy to use, simple to learn.
- Pre-moistened to aid sample collection.
- Provides a tool to help assess and improve hygienic performance and reduce risk.
As an integral part of the Clean-Trace® ATP Monitoring System, the Clean-Trace® Water Test H2O is designed to collect and measure a water sample and assess levels of clinical soil using ATP to monitor manual cleaning performance of lumened instruments.
- Real-time ATP water hygiene test which gives an objective indication of cleanliness in CIP water samples in seconds
- Designed for use on surgical instruments, endoscopes and environmental surfaces.
- Can be used for assessing final rinse or other processed waters
Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Swabs are a fast and easy way to visually check whether cleaning has been carried out to a satisfactory standard by means of protein detection. By comparing the color of the swab and solution against the label, the user can easily interpret the results for the presence of allergens.
- Detects as little as 3 µg of protein on surfaces and in hard to reach areas.
- Provides a tool to help assess and improve hygienic performance.
- Visual reading of a color change indicates the level of cleanliness.
- Real time results allow immediate corrective action.
- Validated for a range of allergenic proteins, including egg, milk, gluten, soy, peanut, almond and buckwheat.
Interactive insights are part of the package. The Clean-Trace Luminometer is supplied with the Clean-Trace® Hygiene Monitoring and Management Software with a newly redesigned dashboard for a quick and easy way to create, store and edit reports. Now even easier to use and more intuitive, with convenient wireless and networking capabilities.
- Enhanced dashboard & reporting capabilities
- New customer-driven improvements
- Multi-location functionality
- Automate data and report generation.
- Quick identification of sites that require attention.
Engineered for Efficiency & Accuracy
Clean-Trace™ utilises photomultiplier detectors, a proven technique across many industries and applications. This technology is considered the gold standard in medical devices, medical imaging, aerospace and other fields of science, to improve efficiency. This technology ensures highly sensitive and consistent readings, allowing you to detect even low levels of ATP ((adenosine triphosphate) on surfaces.
Clean-Trace™ has been internationally recognised and validated for its methods. Third-party validations confirm that the method has been examined to demonstrate that it is reliable, repeatable and stable over time and at different temperatures.
Based on AOAC approval No. 041901, Clean-Trace™ Hygiene Monitoring and Management system is capable of detecting low levels of food and microbial-derived ATP on the most common surfaces in the food industry such as stainless steel, ceramic and plastic.
