Bacteria and Biofilm Detector XEPU-1720

The Bacteria and Biofilm Detector XEPU-1720 is a simple, cheap, and reliable solution for detecting contaminants over large surface areas, without the use of chemicals. Built around our unique UV fluorescing technology, the XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector can quickly identify areas harboring bacterial contaminants such as E.coli, listeria and salmonella which are often missed under standard white light or simple UV light.

The XEPU-1720 can illuminate large areas of work surfaces, aseptic lines, tanks, vats, and other vessels. It allows immediate corrective action by providing instant results, helping to prevent quality deviations and ensure regulatory compliance in the liquid food processing, nutraceutical, pharma, medical and petrochemical industries. Ensure all product contact and high touch surfaces are clean and free of contaminants by simply scanning the surface with the Bacteria and Biofilm Detector XEPU-1720!

Customer Feedback

A food processing plant in Guangzhou: "This year we started using the Bacteria and Biofilm Detector XEPU-1720 to detect bacterial and biofilm on the production line. This device can quickly detect various bacteria and microbial contaminants such as Listeria and Salmonella. The entire detection process does not touch the surface of the production line and does not use any chemicals. The XEPU-1720 is a simple and efficient bacteria detector! It is nearly 50% cheaper than other detection tools and provides better detection results. We are really satisfied."

A nutraceutical factory in Zhengzhou: "In the past, we used ATP tests to identify bacterial contaminants. Due to the small size of the swabbed area relative to the overall surface, sometimes we would miss the contaminated areas. After learning about the Bacteria and Biofilm Detector XEPU-1720, we thought that this device could detect bacteria over large surfaces before ATP tests, so we purchased one unit. First, we use XEPU-1720 to scan the entire surface to identify areas of bacterial contamination. Then we focus ATP swab tests on those spots. By complementing ATP tests with the XEPU-1720, our bacterial detection becomes faster, more efficient, and more reliable."

Why Use XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector?

Minimizing the risk of contamination in food production

Food production managers face a crucial decision every day: whether to begin production. Every hour that production is delayed for cleaning results in lost potential revenue. However, starting production on a surface that hasn’t been thoroughly cleaned significantly increases the risk of contamination. The XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector offers a simple solution, enabling operators to inspect large areas quickly and non-destructively, without the use of chemicals. Equipped with two rechargeable batteries, the device allows one battery to charge while the other is in use, minimizing interruptions and downtime.

Complementing traditional ATP tests

Food manufacturers often face challenges in detecting bacteria and biofilms that could contaminate their products. Currently, they rely on ATP tests, which measure the presence of actively growing microorganisms by detecting adenosine triphosphate (ATP). While this method is effective, it has limitations due to the small size of the swabbed area relative to the overall surface. The swabbing process itself can be cumbersome. However, by complementing this traditional method with the XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector, ATP testing can become faster and more efficient. The XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector helps identify areas of contamination, allowing ATP swab tests to be focused on those spots.

More efficient and accurate than traditional methods

While other technologies, such as fluorescent markers and gels, are available, they are not environmentally friendly and, like ATP tests, suffer from the limitations of a small testing area, making accurate results difficult to obtain. Contaminants often go unnoticed with other detection methods like white light and simple UV lamps. The XEPU-1720 Bacteria and Biofilm Detector illuminates the entire surface, providing immediate results and enabling you to detect potential issues within seconds, whereas other methods might take hours.
