MicroSnap- Rapid Microbial Testing
Detect Indicator Organisms with Same-Day Results
MicroSnap® helps quality teams detect and measure specific indicator organisms in food, raw materials, finished products and environmental surface samples.
Tests are available for total viable count, Enterobacteriaceae, coliforms and E. coli. MicroSnap works with the EnSURE® Touch luminometer and SureTrend® Cloud software for measurement, result tracking and reporting.
Benefits of MicroSnap Testing
- Same-day results: Obtain microbial results in approximately eight hours.
- Targeted detection: Test for specific indicator organisms, including coliforms, E. coli and Enterobacteriaceae.
- Simple workflow: Use a straightforward enrichment and detection process.
- Flexible testing: Test food, raw materials, finished products and environmental surfaces.
- Earlier corrective action: Identify microbial contamination sooner and respond before it affects product quality.
- Connected reporting: Store results, monitor trends and manage microbial-testing data with SureTrend Cloud.

FAQ's
MicroSnap® rapid micro-organism testing devices address the need for fast, same-day results with an easy-to-use test.
Compared to traditional culturing methods, MicroSnap® devices are able to detect a larger dynamic range for flexibility in a variety of applications. Since results are received faster, critical control points can be monitored and environmental contamination can be averted or minimised, improving food safety.
The MicroSnap® testing platform consists of an enrichment device with a specific bacterial growth medium and a bioluminogenic (light-producing) detection device. When the specific micro-organism is found, light is emitted and measured with Hygiena’s EnSURETM Touch luminometer. Hygiena’s SureTrend software stores and tracks the results for further analysis.
The MicroSnap’s user-friendly design has a patented Snap-Valve that holds a precise amount of a specific enrichment broth, ready to be snapped open and used for product or surface samples. The enrichment device contains a built-in pipette for convenient transfer of the enriched sample to the detection device which gives final results after ten minutes, making the total testing time only about 8 hours.
