Pyromol-E-Test

Detection of protein residue in endoscope channels

Pyromol-Test is based on a dye binding method which is also used in clinical chemistry. Contamination in an endoscope contains protein which can be detected at a low level. For routine monitoring and validation of cleaning efficacy according to EN ISO 15883.

Function

Easy to use test kit
Quick detection of insoluble protein residue
Colour change to blue indicates a contaminated channel
Dye binding method for a detection limit of 1μg
No interference with glutaraldehyde or peracetic acid

Evaluation

Pyromol-E will detect protein residue after manual or automated reprocessing. A blue spot on the swab indicates protein residue in the tested channel. A large amount of protein can discolor the entire test.

Contaminated instruments are a hygiene risk and need to be rejected. Instruments need to be free of any residue!
