FREE ATP VS INTRACELLULAR ATP
What is ATP? Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule used by all living cells to provide energy to metabolic reactions. It is often referred to as the “molecular unit of currency” of intracellular energy transfer. As ATP is specific to living environments, its presence proves the existence of living organisms. ATP testing is a technique ...

Test Pens
The degree of luminescence depends on the amount of ATP-AMP and is quantifiable (expressed as Relative Light Units – RLU) using the Lumitester PD20. The more bioluminescence is measured, the greater the degree of impurity. The whole procedure lasts less than 30 seconds.
