INDuSTRY PRODuCTS (PocketSwab® Plus, AllerGiene®, and WaterGiene™) which rapidly predicts the hygiene status of surfaces, and rinse waters in seconds. Charm Sciences, Inc 978.687.9200 Lawrence, MA www.charm.com Charm Sciences, Inc. Hardy Diagnostic’s – Colitag™ olitag™, by CPI International, is ready-to-use ONPG/MUGbased test, which can be added directly to a liquid or semi-liquid sample. If coliforms are present, ONPG will produce a distinct yellow color. If E. coli is present, the sample will fluoresce a bright blue color under long-wave (366 nm) UV light. Incubation of the test is performed at 35°C for 22–26 hours. Colitag™ is capable of resuscitating and detecting even single cells of severely injured E. coli and coliforms. In March of 2004, Colitag™ earned US EPA approval for use as a presence-absence test in drinking water and approval for use as an enumerative test in MPN format in May 2005. Colitag™ is available for use in municipal and bottled water testing, beverage waters and other QC coliform monitoring testing. Preliminary testing has also shown promising results for monitoring shellfish meats and shellfish-growing waters, as well as for waters growing alfalfa sprouts. Coliforms are a group of closely related bacteria that are (with a few exceptions) generally not harmful to humans. However, they include species present in the intestines of warm-blooded animals, and thus are often associated with disease outbreaks. For this reason, they are considered “indicator organisms” and their presence is used as a sign of the potential risk of ill- Charm New Microplate Luminescence System he Charm EPIC™ is a new generation microplate luminescence system that rapidly predicts spoilage in shelf stable, and extended shelf life (ESL) beverage products. EPIC sets new standards in sterility and shelf life testing on UHT, ESL, and aseptic products such as dairy (fluid whites, flavored milks, ice cream mix, shake mix, half & half, creamers, non dairy creamers, etc.), and soy milk. Fusing speed and sensitivity, the EPIC positively impacts the bottom line compared to conventional microbiological methods with faster product release from warehouse, reducing process line downtime, and providing more time for remediation. Spoilage organisms of concern detected by the EPIC include yeast, molds, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Listeria innocua, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus licheniformis and other post process recontaminating flora. Dedicated dynamic software, EPIC link™, informs the operator of test status, and captures test results for customized analysis by sample type, sample source, manufacturing identifiers, thresholds, code dates, and pass/ fail statistics. The EPIC system complements the Charm ATP (adenosine triphosphate) hygiene product line C T ness from disease causing organisms associated with sewage or animal wastes. In order to prevent food and waterborne illnesses, the FDA and EPA regulate the testing of many foods and waters for the presence of coliforms, fecal contamination and potentially pathogenic microorganisms. Foods need to be free of hazardous microbes, or within a specified safe low level. Water for human consumption has a maximum contaminant level of zero allowable coliforms and fecal indicators such as Escherichia coli. Hardy Diagnostics 800.266.2222 Santa Maria, CA www.hardydiagnostics.com Nilfisk CFM Launches New Hazardous Location Line of Industrial Vacuums O ver the years, plants across the United States have experienced tragedies directly related to poor maintenance plans. From the recent sugar dust-related explosion in Savannah, GA to the Spooner, WI chemical plant where 2 workers were critically injured, explosionproof vacuums could have played a key role in prevention. Nilfisk CFM’s new line of explosion-proof vacuums strive to do just that, protecting manufacturers’ most valuable assets – their employees. The line is composed of 2 electric models, the CFM 118 EXP and 118 EXPW, and 2 intrinsically-safe pneumatic models, the A15 EXP and A15 EXPW. The CFM 118 EXP-series is available in two electric models. The 118 EXP is for pick up of dry materials, while the 118 EXPW is equipped for picking up liquids and other wet hazardous materials.
