AquaTest™ 3-in-1 Water Quality Test Strips
$1.00Water quality is key to the performance of chemical cleaning agents. In particular, hard water binds up detergent molecules, preventing them from breaking down the contaminants. Further, these molecules are often a source of staining and pitting of surgical instruments. Enzymes used in enzymatic detergent are highly influenced by the pH level of water. An improper pH level can lead to the partial or complete inactivation of the enzymes relied upon to breakdown the soil on instruments. Total alkalinity measures the amount of alkaline buffers in water.

DetergiCheck™ Proteolytic Detergent Test
$1.00Crucial to a cleaning efficiency of an instrument washer is the adequate concentration and exposure to chemicals capable of breaking down (hydrolyzing) protein which are water insoluble, such as fibrin. Sometimes, however, the detergents do not get to the washer chamber or are not delivered at the proper volume.

LumCheck™
$1.00LumCheck™ is designed as an independent check on the cleaning performance of pulse-flow lumen washers. Embedded on the stainless steel plate is a specially formulated blood soil which includes the toughest components of blood to clean.
