Keep things moving with the 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Hygiene Monitoring and Management System, now re-engineered for improved stability and consistency. It’s a complete system that helps you optimize productivity, quickly prepare for audits and adhere to HACCP and FSMA rules. The system comes complete with 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Luminometer and software and is used with the following test swabs to determine the level of contamination in a sample: 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Surface ATP UXL100 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water Plus - Total ATP AQT200 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water - Free ATP AQF100 -
Surface ATP Test Swab 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Surface ATP UXL100 is a single-use test device that contains a swab for the collection of a sample from a surface. The swab is pre-moistened to aid in sample collection and processing. Upon activation of the test, the chemical reacts with the sample collected on the swab to produce light. The amount of the light produced is proportional to the degree of potential contamination. Measurement of the light requires the use of a 3M™ Clean-Trace™ NG Luminometer and the results are displayed in Relative Light Units (RLU). The higher the RLU number, the more contaminated the sample. Not intended for consumer use. Monitoring the effectiveness of cleaning helps reduce the risk of a food safety incident. With 3M Clean-Trace Surface ATP UXL100, monitoring for contamination is simple with real-time results. Quick detection and confirmation allows immediate corrective action to take place. This product can be used with minimal training and is easily integrated into company HACCP programs to monitor for cleaning effectiveness. Additionally, it’s easy to use and provides consistent, reliable results. -

Water Free - ATP Test Swab 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water-Free ATP AQF100 is a single-use test device that contains sample collection rings for the collection of an aqueous sample. The sample collection rings aid in the collection of a liquid sample for measuring free adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in solution. Upon activation of the test device, reagent in the cuvette of the test device reacts with ATP collected on the sample collection rings to produce light. The intensity of the light is proportional to the amount of ATP. Measurement of the light requires the use of a 3M™ Clean-Trace™ NG Luminometer and the results are displayed in Relative Light Units (RLU). Not intended for consumer use. The difference between 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water-Free ATP test results and 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water Plus - Total ATP test results done on the same sample indicate the amount of intact microbial cells in the sample. With 3M Clean-Trace Water-Free ATP AQF100, monitoring for contamination is simple with real-time results. Quick detection and confirmation allows immediate corrective action to take place. This product can be used with minimal training to monitor for cleaning effectiveness. -
Water Plus ATP Test Swab 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water Plus - Total ATP AQT200 is designed to rapidly assess equipment sanitation processes and the efficiency of Clean in Place (CIP) procedures. It accurately detects organic contamination from microbial or product residues using ATP detection technology. The test gives an objective indication of cleanliness in water samples in seconds, and is designed for use with the 3M™ Clean-Trace™ NG Luminometer. The device tip contains sample collection rings that are coated with a unique agent to aid in the efficient collection and processing of a sample. Once the test is activated, the results are measured in the 3M Clean-Trace NG Luminometer and provided in Relative Light Units (RLU). By working in real time, food and beverage producers can test rinse waters after each CIP cycle and re-clean immediately if ‘fail’ results are obtained. Not intended for consumer use. Monitoring the effectiveness of cleaning helps reduce the risk of a food safety incident. With 3M Clean-Trace Water Plus - Total ATP AQT200, monitoring for contamination in water samples is simple with real-time results. Quick detection and confirmation allows immediate corrective action to take place. This product can be used with minimal training and is easily integrated into company HACCP programs to monitor for cleaning effectiveness. Additionally, it’s easy to use and provides reliable detection. -
UHT and ESL Beverage Testing The 3M™ Microbial Luminescence System (MLS) is a rapid method for release testing of Ultra High Temperature (UHT) and Extended Shelf Life (ESL) processed products. Following a 2 to 3 day pre-incubation of the product sample, simply pipette 50 µL of the pre-incubated sample into a well of the microplate. Place the microplate on the 3M MLS II instrument and select the appropriate assay within the software. The instrument provides real-time results in 27 minutes or less. With traditional agar methods, not only do you have to pre-incubate sample containers, you then have to wait 2 to 5 days for the microorganisms to grow on the plate. The 3M Microbial Luminesce System eliminates the second incubation period, allowing you to release product 2 to 5 days faster. That means you can reduce inventory storage space and cost, generate faster inventory turns, increase cash flow and be more flexible and responsive to customer needs. Reassuring Reliability. Using bioluminescence technology, the 3M Microbial Luminescence System detects ATP (adenosine triphosphate), an energy molecule universally present in all living organisms. This allows the 3M MLS to have faster time-to-result than traditional pH or agar tests, and more reliably detect a broad range of microorganisms than traditional methods. With the 3M MLS UHT Beverage Screen Kit, a wide variety of UHT and ESL products can be tested such as dairy products (milk, flavored milk, creamers, ice cream mixes), dairy substitutes (soy, rice, almond and coconut milks), juices (orange, apple, peach, grape, tomato), caffeinated beverages, smoothies (formulated with milk and juice), infant/medical nutrition (baby formula, nutrition shakes), coconut water, soups and broths. -
