Adenosine Triphosphate, or ATP, is an energy molecule found in all living things, which makes it a perfect indicator to determine whether or not a surface is clean/sanitized. testing for ATP is used as a tool to quickly determine cleanliness—regardless of whether the ATP detected originates from benign sources or pathogens. Companies use ATP tests to quickly verify surfaces have been cleaned thoroughly in a variety of industries including restoration.
In an ATP test, the ATP is brought into contact with a reagent in the test device. Next light is emitted in direct proportion to the amount of ATP present in the sample, providing information on the level of contamination in a matter of seconds.
Whether you have concerns about COVID, or just looking to assess the cleanliness from biological contamination, a clean environment is the first step to peace of mind.
