LuminUltra - Model Quench-Gone-QGO-M -Organic Modified Test Kit

The Quench-Gone Organic Modified (QGO-M) test kit is based on the measurement of ATP using LuminUltra’s 2^nd Generation ATP® technology. The filtration and organic washing steps involved in this kit allow for it to provide a rapid and interference-free determination of total active biomass, for low-solids organic-based samples, such as oilfield-related waters, fuels, lubricants, metalworking fluids, and oily brines.

ATP is present in all living cells therefore this test kit can be used to quantify total bioburden in organics-laden samples for rapid assessment of contamination and in conjunction with additional analyses for a complete process microbiological profile.

Obtain results in under 5 minutes, allowing you to isolate any problem areas, determine the root cause, and mitigate the issue – all during the same shift.

• ASTM D7687 & E2694 compliant
• Measure only living biomass via Cellular ATP
• Results available in < 5 minutes
• Low Detection Limit of nominally 0.25pg/mL (250 microbial equivalents per mL), although simple test modifications can allow even greater sensitivity
• All interferences such as organics, colour, residual chemical, and other characteristics inherent to sample matrices are mitigated
