During her talk, Ms. Cuarto highlighted the Lumitester™ Smart, a cutting-edge hygiene and monitoring system developed by Kikkoman Biochemifa. This innovative device stands out as the only system that utilizes patented A3 Technology, which measures not only ATP (adenosine triphosphate) but also ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and AMP (adenosine monophosphate). These adenylates are in higher concentrations in many types of food and microorganisms. Since ATP is frequently converted to ADP and AMP through metabolic processes, heat treatment, or exposure to acidic or alkaline conditions, measuring all three compounds allows the Lumitester™ Smart to deliver more accurate and reliable results than conventional ATP test systems. The Kikkoman Lumitester™ Smart is AOAC – approved, GBAC-STAR™ registered, and is recipient of the iF Design Award in the “Product” category. Additional features include:
- Cost-effective, convenient, and user-friendly device
- Seamless data transfer and management via Bluetooth connection to smartphones or tablets
- Cloud storage compatibility for easy access and control across multiple devices
Effective hygiene monitoring is essential to maintaining operational excellence and consumer trust. Kikkoman Biochemifa’s cutting-edge solutions are designed to help you uphold the highest standards in cleanliness, safeguard your processes, and deliver quality without compromise. Let us help you strengthen your sanitation strategies and drive lasting confidence in your products and services.
