Hygiena, a well-known provider of microbial detection, monitoring and identification solutions, has announced the new ZymoSnap ALP, an innovative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) testing system designed to verify pasteurization efficiency in short shelf life dairy products within just five minutes. Hygiena's ZymoSnap ALP has been specifically developed to offer reliable, definitive and repeatable results, even at low levels (25-100 mU/L), ensuring confidence in results. Featuring a convenient all-in-one design and requiring only minimal equipment, the system is simple to use without specialist knowledge or testing facilities. The new ZymoSnap ALP has been independently validated by Campden BRI, the recognized provider of scientific, technical and advisory services to the food, drink and allied industries. Hygiena's ZymoSnap ALP has been designed for ease of use and high performance, as well as significant time and cost savings compared with conventional ALP testing methods. For many years, the industry has relied on systems that require high capital and running cost, unstable reagents and positive control leading to wastage and the need for glassware. ZymoSnap ALP overcomes all of these challenges offering a cost-effective solution via convenient disposable devices with a long shelflife. It enables testing to be performed at limits well below the globally recognized regulatory level of 350 mU/L. Utilizing the company's patented snap-valve technology, ZymoSnap ALP provides sensitive and reproducible results, while allowing users to meet their sustainability objectives by being a 100% recyclable test device.
