Control allergen cross-contamination in your processing facility with Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Allergen Test Swabs – a fast, simple solution for monitoring the presence of total proteins on surfaces to verify the effectiveness of cleaning. Neogen offers the following products in this category, Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein & the Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Plus Test Swab.
Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Test Swab
With the Clean-Trace Surface Protein Allergen Test Swab, monitoring allergens on surfaces and in hard-to-reach areas is simple with results in 15 minutes or less, thus improving hygienic performance.
- Detects as little as 3 µg of protein on surfaces and in hard-to-reach areas.
- Visual reading of a color change indicates the presence of detectable levels of protein.
- Fast results allow immediate corrective action.
- Validated for a range of allergenic proteins, including egg, milk, gluten, soy, peanut, almond and buckwheat.
- Can be integrated into your Allergen Management Program where risk areas can be monitored for cleaning effectiveness
- Can help to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination where food residues on surfaces provide nutrients for spoilage or pathogenic bacteria to thrive
- Clear multiple allergens in one test
- Available in packs of 10, 25, 50 and 100 Swabs
Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Plus Test Swab
Ideal for small businesses including cafes, restaurants, pubs, hotels, healthcare facilities, leisure centers, spas and caterers, the Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Plus Swabs are a rapid hygiene test which detects whether a surface has been cleaned effectively. Takes seconds to perform, with results available in 10 minutes or less.
- Detects as little as 50 µg of protein on surfaces and in solution.
- No instrumentation is required to interpret the sample results.
- A visual color change reading indicates the presence of detectable levels of protein.
- Fast results allow immediate corrective action on-site.
- Integrated into any Hygiene Management Program where risk areas can be effectively monitored for cleaning effectiveness.
- Reduce the risk of biological contamination in-real time, where food residues on surfaces could potentially provide nutrients for spoilage or pathogenic bacteria to thrive.
- Available in packs of 10, 25, 50 and 100 Swabs
Clean-Trace Surface Protein Allergen Test Swab
A visual reading of a color change indicates the level of cleanliness by detecting as little as 3µg of allergen on surfaces and in solution. No instrumentation is required to interpret the sample results. This easy-to-use device requires minimal training. Clean-Trace Surface Protein Allergen Test Swab can be easily integrated into company HACCP programs to monitor for cleaning effectiveness. Additionally, its ease of use, reliable detection and fast, visible results can help in teaching staff the importance of cleaning.
Clean-Trace Surface Protein Allergen Test Swab is validated for a range of allergenic proteins, including egg, milk, gluten, soy, peanut, almond, and buckwheat. Refrigeration is not required since this can be stored at room temperature (25°C or 77°F).
With the unique swab-click-read format and easy-to-read color change technology, this simple method of checking for removal of protein residues after cleaning is very easy to use and implement in a busy production environment. The results are semi-quantitative with four possible color interpretations. The faster the test turns purple and the stronger the color change the higher the level of contamination on a surface.
Clean-Trace™ Surface Protein Plus Test Swab
These colour changing swabs provide you with the means to monitor cleaning procedures first hand, quickly and effectively on a day to day basis. The unique “swab-click-read” technology is easy to use and detects protein residue on surfaces in 10 minutes or less. The faster the swab turns purple the higher the level of contamination on a surface, but if it’s green, it’s clean!
