Description
In 10 minutes and without equipment, anyone can verify cleaning processes between productions.
Are you considering of doing allergen control but you do not know how to approach it?
Do you want to verify cleaning between productions when sharing production lines?
Do you have many products to analyse and you need results immediately or within a day?
Are you implementing an IFS, BRC, ISO 22000 2005 quality standard?
Do you work with powdered ingredients that can cause contaminations after cleaning?
HOW DOES IT HELP YOU?
The speed and simplicity of Proteon Express tests included in the Lab2Go briefcase allow you adapting the allergen analysis to the time and place you need. Besides, you can personalised and carry around the tests and all needed to perform the analysis. Having specific information will allow us to make immediate decisions between productions, detect insufficient cleanings, control critical points of contamination and ensure the release of your product to the market without risk.
