Protein is present in many types of foods, and is therefore a useful residue to indicate whether a food processing surface has been cleaned effectively or not. By using a rapid swab for protein, users are able to check if a surface is okay, and if necessary to perform re-cleaning, which can help prevent contamination of product.
Clean Do, from Corona Giken in Japan, and available in Australia from AMSL Scientific, is a self-contained swab that provides a colour change reaction in the presence of protein. No additional reagents or incubation conditions are required, and the results are able to be read visually in just minutes.
Clean Do swabs do not require any instrumentation and are cost effective. This means that rapid hygiene testing is available to all size food processors on any budget. Clean Do is also suitable for use by restaurants and caterers, or as an educational tool for food handlers.
