LuminUltra 2nd Generation ATP Monitoring: Real-time Microbiological Testing in ANY Application

The QuenchGone Aqueous (QGA) test kit is designed for water-based samples with low solids and low microorganism concentrations. Using a single analysis, you will be able to quickly measure total microbiological concentration in any aqueous sample with a wide detection range. Use QGA to detect total microbiological activity in: Fresh & Salt Water Drinking Water Oilfield Waters Sanitary Water Cooling Water Treated Effluent High-Purity Water Reclaimed Water Concrete Admixtures Process Wash Water and more! The QGA test kit utilizes a 5-minute filtration-based analysis to measure a parameter called Cellular ATP (cATP).  cATP represents ATP from living microorganisms in suspension in a fluid and therefore is a direct indication of the microbial content.  Use the real-time knowledge gained through QGA analyses to assess microbiological contamination and prevent process deterioration, optimize maintenance, and troubleshoot disinfection programs. Item Description Order Code QuenchGone Aqueous (QGA): For low-solids water-based samples QuenchGone Organic (QGO-M) is based on the measurement of ATP and is designed for low-solids, low-biomass concentration applications where samples contain organic solvents, such as metalworking fluids. QGO-M includes special provisions to separate organics from the analysis. You will be able to quickly measure microbiological concentration using this kit with a wide detection range and a guarantee of no assay inhibition!  Use QGO-M to detect total microbiological activity in: Metalworking Fluids Finished Fuels Polymer Emulsions Crude Oil Hydrocarbon Diluents Lubricants and more! The QGO-M test kit utilizes a 5-minute filtration-based analysis to measure a parameter called Cellular ATP (cATP).  cATP represents ATP from living microorganisms in suspension in a fluid and therefore is a direct indication of the microbial content. Compared to other methods of measuring total microbial load (also known as total flora), QGO-M provides immediate feedback and does not encounter interference from organic contaminants. Use the real-time knowledge gained through QGO-M analyses to assess microbiological contamination and prevent process deterioration, optimize maintenance, and troubleshoot disinfection programs. Item Description Order Code QuenchGone Organic Modified (QGO-M): For low-solids organic-based samples QG21W test kits provide a real-time measurement of the active biomass population, stress levels, and solids viability in any biological wastewater treatment process. By isolating the living population and eliminating all interferences, the operator can maximize efficiency and stability in treatment processes such as: Activated Sludge Lagoons Anaerobic Bioreactors UASB Bioreactors Membrane Bioreactors Digesters Activated Sludge Lagoons and more! QG21W test kits use two parallel 1-minute analyses on each sample to determine three valuable pieces of information: Cellular ATP (cATP) represents ATP from living microorganisms and therefore is a direct indication of the living population. This information greatly facilitates inventory management and process optimization. Biomass Stress Index (BSI) represents the stress level experienced by the microbiological population. This quantity is very useful in monitoring for toxicity in bioreactors and upstream processes to immediately detect the onset of problems. Active Biomass Ratio (ABR) represents the percentage of bioreactor solids that are active microorganisms. aximizing the ABR provides many benefits such as enhanced sludge quality and improved settling. Routinely collected ATP data indicates the size and health of the population required to efficiently treat biodegradable waste. Since QG21W shows the effects of process changes on the biomass as they happen, it not only provides the ability to adjust process variables to optimum conditions accordingly, but it also warns of impending process upsets due to toxicity. Besides wastewater treatment, QG21W test kits can also be used in a variety of biological production processes (including biological fermentation for alcohol or ethanol production) and bioremediation processes such as those used to rehabilitate soil.  Additional advanced test kits are also available that can detect the onset of filamentous bulking and deflocculation. QuenchGone21 Industrial provides the means to accurately monitor and control total microbial growth in any industrial process water stream. LuminUltra's advanced reagent system provides accurate, repeatable, and interference-free results in high-solids, medium-biomass applications such as: Papermaking Whitewater Pulping Process Water Mineral & Pigment Slurries Paints Coatings Adhesives and more! The QG21I Standard test kit uses two parallel 1-minute analyses on each sample to determine two valuable pieces of information:   Cellular ATP (cATP) represents ATP from living microorganisms and therefore is a direct indication of total living microorganisms. Biomass Stress Index (BSI) represents the stress level experienced by the microbiological population. cATP and BSI measurements provide the means to manage, troubleshoot, and optimize biocide treatment systems in real-time. An effective routine monitoring program using QuenchGone21 facilitates continuous improvement and maximizes product quality!   The Deposit & Surface Analysis (DSA) test kit is designed for measurement of microorganisms on surfaces, in deposits, and on biofilm collection devices (e.g. corrosion coupons).  Using a single analysis, you will be able to quickly measure total microbiological concentration on any surface or deposit sample with a wide detection range. Use DSA to detect total microbiological activity in: Process Surfaces Biofilm Collection Devices Solid Deposits Slimes and more! The DSA test kit utilize a 10-minute dilution-based analysis to measure a parameter called Total ATP (tATP).  When measured on surfaces or in deposits, tATP represents the accumulation of sessile biomass on process equipment and therefore can indicate the presence of or potential for microbiological corrosion.  This information can be used to quickly troubleshoot and optimize the biological control process such as a biocide application and control program to curb excess build-up.
