MicroSnap^® Total delivers same-day total viable count (TVC) test results, giving you the advantage of knowing microbial levels on the same day samples are collected. The test uses a novel bioluminogenic test reaction that generates light when enzymes that are characteristic of viable bacteria react with substrates to produce light. The light-generating signal is then quantified with a Hygiena^® luminometer. With same-day results, MicroSnap^® Total results enable you to take corrective actions faster or release products sooner.
