AllerSnap High Sensitivity Protein Residue Test

Pre-moistened swab provides reliable collection recovery and detection

AllerSnap is a quick and easy way to verify the cleanliness of surfaces by detecting protein residues left behind after cleaning. By simply swabbing the area and activating the device, you release a reagent that turns color, providing a qualitative and semi-quantitative result of the protein levels on the surface: green means clean and purple means re-clean. The more protein present, the quicker the color change to purple and the darker the color. AllerSnap quickly validates surface hygiene, allowing immediate corrective action to be taken when necessary.

Benefits

• Results in 15-30 minutes depending on sensitivity requirements
• Proactive, qualitative approach to verification 
• Broad range, non-specific protein screening is more cost-effective when specific tests are not required
• Eliminates mistakes and waste
• No separate wetting agent required
• No reconstitution step ensure consistent repeatable results

Can you name the iconic TV show by a still image from their intro?

13 Foods You Should Never Eat Past the Expiration Date

Think the sniff test can protect you from foodborne illness? Not when these items are involved.

Looks and smells can sometimes be deceiving (taking a whiff of the milk carton is not an exact science), which is why those expiration dates stamped on the packaging can guide you in the right direction and help prevent illness. From creamy cheeses to sandwich staples, it’s best to toss these foods once they’re past their given expiration date unless you want to roll the dice on an extra sick day.
