We understand the importance of relying on a partner able to provide scientifically sound solutions. Our amplified ATP assay kits which include ATP-bioluminescence detection reagents enable greater signals generating from the smallest amounts of microbial contamination as well as faster, more confident detection than other ATP-bioluminescence methods.
Our Fastest ATP-based Contamination Detection
ATP-bioluminescence, a gold standard rapid detection method, provides an effective approach to confidently detect the presence of microbial contamination in a sample. However, it is dependent upon microbial growth to achieve sufficient levels of ATP for detection. Celsis AMPiScreen® ATP assay kits include reagents that utilize a method of amplifying ATP that is not constrained by the finite amount of metabolic ATP available in the standard bioluminescence assay. The amplification of ATP beyond that which is inherent in the test sample is accomplished through a proprietary reagent, Celsis LuminAMP™, and an additional instrument-controlled amplification period to optimize the detection of microorganisms.
Sterility in 6 Days, Bioburden in 24 Hours
Based upon a proven detection method, Celsis AMPiScreen products amplify low levels of contaminant ATP present in a test sample that are then easily detected by bioluminescence in Celsis® instruments. This naturally occurring reaction, which also provides the characteristic glow of fireflies, occurs when the luciferase enzyme converts luciferin into oxyluciferin to produce bioluminescence. This reaction requires the presence of ATP to occur.
