Neogen launches AccuPoint Advanced

Neogen has released an enhanced version of its popular AccuPoint® ATP Hygiene Monitoring System that makes this product the most sensitive and consistent hygiene monitoring system available.

Neogen’s new AccuPoint Advanced ATP Hygiene Monitoring System features improved samplers to more consistently collect any potential residues left behind after cleaning; an improved compact reader to better detect any residues collected by the samplers; and improved data management software to better organise and analyse the system’s test results.

“While the previous versions of our AccuPoint system have been very successful tools to monitor the effectiveness of the cleaning programs for many, the feedback we’ve received led directly to this next generation of our AccuPoint system,” said Steve Chambers, Neogen’s Sales and Marketing Director. “Our many years of working closely with the food industry, and other producers of consumer products, have shown us what matters. We are very pleased to offer a new hygiene monitoring system that we believe is superior to anything else in the market.”

The new AccuPoint Advanced ATP Hygiene Monitoring System features an improved reader to produce results in less than 20 seconds

Improvements include:

• Samplers with improved chemistry to produce more consistent results with even greater sensitivity — and the ability to be stored at room temperature for up to two weeks;
• An improved reader to produce even faster results in less than 20 seconds;
• Advanced Data Manager software to more easily streamline the testing process by creating test plans and syncing important data, while keeping a permanent record of hygiene test results.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) sanitation monitoring systems have evolved into the current “gold standard” for food and beverage production facilities to monitor their hygiene programme’s effectiveness. Using an ATP system is an easy and quick gauge of a facility’s cleanliness, and is easily customized for the specific equipment, people, product, and processes used in any food production facility. The system sets an objective, recordable and traceable standard to help avoid the consequences of substandard cleaning efforts.
