Rapid Bacteria Detection in Under 5 minutes


FEATURES
  • Unique system. The only hygiene screen specifically designed for detection of bacterial contaminants from meat carcasses.
  • Patented Filtravette™ System removes both ATP arising from somatic cells and other interfering compounds.
  • Excellent correlation with aerobic plate counts.
  • Sampling protocols for pork, beef and poultry.
  • Extensively tested by United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)
  • Cost effective
  • Handheld
  • Portable
  • Rapid

IT WILL
  • Identify contaminated food
  • Monitor QA or HACCP programs
  • Detect total bacterial counts from levels of 1000 cfu/cm²
  • Provide results in 5 minutes
  • Improve efficiency
Real-time testing in the palm of your hand
Profile™-1 has been developed by New Horizons Diagnostics Corporation and extensively tested by the USDA to provide a rapid and sensitive detection system for total bacterial contamination of animal carcasses.
Profile™-1 is a hand held, food and hygiene testing system that provides a reliable method of detecting bacteria on carcasses and surrounding surfaces. It monitors for the presence of contamination in minutes with the accuracy of 48-hour culture. The Profile™-1 luminescence-based system utilises a unique Filtravette™ and regent system which provides real-time consistent results to improve food quality.
Improve Efficiency
Profile™-1 helps inspectors and meat processors identify problems rapidly allowing action to be taken immediately. Profile™-1 provides data on total bacteria levels and ensures that equipment and other surfaces have been properly cleaned. Profile™-1 prevents unnecessary trimming of carcasses, and monitors critical control points fast and efficiently to maintain an effective HACCP program.
Results in less than 5 minutes
To use Profile™-1, simply sponge a surface, place the sponge in a bag containing a buffer solution, and mix. Place a sample of the mix in the Filtravette™, add reagents, and read the results on the LCD display... in less than 5 minutes.
