NEOGEN
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about NEOGEN from 3G Electric.
What is the NEOGEN ATP Luminometer (SKU 416FR9) used for?
The NEOGEN ATP Luminometer is a cleaning efficiency meter that detects ATP on surfaces to verify sanitation. It uses an LCD touchscreen display and can store up to 4,000 results and 3,000 sample plans. Powered by a lithium-ion battery, it includes a wall charger. This instrument is typically used in food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical, and healthcare environments to quickly assess cleaning effectiveness. The luminometer works with compatible samplers, such as surface, water, and access samplers, to collect samples. Results are displayed on the touchscreen and can be recorded for documentation. The device is designed for portable use, allowing spot checks across a facility.
What are the storage requirements for NEOGEN ATP samplers?
NEOGEN ATP samplers, including surface, water, and access samplers, must be stored refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C. They have a shelf life of 6 months when kept under these conditions. The maximum operating temperature is 8°C. These requirements ensure the reagents remain stable and effective. 3G Electric ships these temperature-sensitive items with appropriate logistics support to maintain the cold chain. It is important to verify storage conditions upon receipt and before use. Do not freeze the samplers, as this may damage the reagents. Always check the expiration date before use.
Which NEOGEN sampler accessories are available from 3G Electric?
3G Electric supplies three NEOGEN sampler accessories: the surface sampler (SKU 416FR8), the water sampler (SKU 416FR7), and the access sampler (SKU 416FR6). Each is supplied in packs of 100. These samplers are designed for use with NEOGEN ATP luminometers to collect samples from various surfaces and liquids. The surface sampler is used for flat surfaces, the water sampler for liquid samples, and the access sampler for hard-to-reach areas. All require refrigerated storage between 2°C and 8°C and have a 6-month shelf life. They are compatible with the ATP Luminometer (SKU 416FR9).
How does the NEOGEN ATP Luminometer store and manage data?
The NEOGEN ATP Luminometer (SKU 416FR9) stores up to 4,000 test results and 3,000 sample plans internally. The LCD touchscreen allows users to navigate menus, select sample plans, and view results. Data can be reviewed on the device or exported for record-keeping. The lithium-ion battery provides power for extended use, and a wall charger is included. This storage capacity supports routine monitoring programs without immediate data transfer. For detailed data management procedures, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
Can NEOGEN ATP samplers be used with other luminometers?
NEOGEN ATP samplers are designed for use with NEOGEN ATP luminometers, such as the ATP Luminometer (SKU 416FR9). Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed and may depend on the specific instrument's design and reagent chemistry. For optimal performance, use NEOGEN samplers with NEOGEN instruments. If you have questions about compatibility with a specific model, contact 3G Electric for assistance. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for sampler and instrument pairing.
What is the shelf life of NEOGEN ATP samplers?
NEOGEN ATP samplers have a shelf life of 6 months when stored refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C. This applies to surface, water, and access samplers. The expiration date is typically printed on the packaging. Using samplers beyond their shelf life may lead to inaccurate results. Ensure proper rotation of stock and check dates before use. 3G Electric can provide guidance on inventory management for these temperature-sensitive items.
