Rapid Protein Residue Test
PRO-Clean™ is the easiest and most accurate way to verify the cleanliness of food equipment surfaces. Simply swab a surface and release the reagent. If protein residue is present, the reagent will turn purple - the more contamination, the quicker the color changes and the darker it becomes. PRO-Clean instantly validates surface hygiene, allowing immediate corrective action to be taken when necessary.

Reliable and accurate changeover cleaning verification.
Why test for protein residue? Protein is more difficult to remove from surfaces than glucose or other residues, so it's a good indicator for surface contamination. If you need to verify protein removal quickly, PRO-Clean is reliable and accurate. Learn more about protein residues in the resources below.
Need more sensitivity for monitoring allergens?
For enhanced residual protein residue detection, try AllerSnap™. AllerSnap utilizes a short incubation period for more sensitive surface hygiene monitoring.
