Take phosphatase testing to its highest level

The Fluorophos ALP assay is a rapid test for verifying proper pasteurization of dairy products. It takes phosphatase testing to its highest level by yielding quantitative results and eliminating subjective interpretation. A versatile system for dairy products, the Fluorophos ALP Test System can test products made from cow, goat, sheep, and other species.

Highlighted features
  • Fast & accurate results
  • Globally proven
  • Reduced production liability

The most sensitive pasteurization determination

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), found naturally in raw milk, is destroyed at temperatures slightly above the temperature necessary to destroy microorganisms pathogenic to humans.

Measurement of residual phosphatase after pasteurization offers a means of verifying the products are heated to the proper temperatures and are not contaminated with raw milk.

The Fluorophos ALP assay measures the ALP activity in dairy products, allowing the user to monitor the completeness of pasteurization and detect raw milk contamination.

Flexible Consumables

Easier and More Reliable

PhosphaCheck Pasteurization Controls allow you to monitor your assay. These consistent, reliable, off-the-shelf controls readily replace in-house manufactured controls.

Assurance

With this set of positive, negative, and normal PhosphaCheck Controls, you are assured quantitative levels of ALP—every time.
