HY-LiTE^® Jet A1 Fuel ATP Test Kit

产品说明

一般描述

The HY-LiTE^® Jet A1 Fuel ATP Test Kit contains ready-to-use pens for detection of total biological contamination of Jet A1 fuel used in conjunction with the HY-LiTE^® 2/2A luminometer. Fuel contains small amounts of water and bears risk of microbial contamination. The biomass (e.g. bacteria, fungi) may grow and cause blocking of filters or corrosion of tanks, which is a very expensive issue in terms of unplanned maintenance in the hangar and days for microbiology test results.
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is detected by reaction with a luciferin/luciferase reagent in buffered solution. The test will detect the metabolic activity of bacteria, yeast and molds, including sulphate reducing bacteria and other anaerobe microorganisms, which are not always detected by traditional growth-based methods.
The test kit is designed to indicate presence of metabolically active biological material, but it is the nature of biology that there may be organisms present in the sample that are not detected by the test procedure. In particular, the results of any test procedure cannot be interpreted to indicate sterility of the sample tested.
Merck KGaA and its affiliates and appointed distributors do not accept any liability for any decision or assessment taken or made because of using this test kit.
MEASUREMENT LIMITS:
IATA (International Air Transport Association) “Guidance Material on Microbiological Contamination in Aircraft Fuel Tanks” 2nd Edition, February 2005 (ISBN 92-9195-437-3):

• Negligible: < 1000 RLU/liter fuel
• Moderate: 1000 – 5000 RLU/liter fuel
• Heavy: > 5000 RLU/liter fuel

The limits suggested above are based on the HY-LiTE^® 2 luminometer′s measurement scale. They apply only to Aircraft Wing Tank samples and are based on comparison with other routinely used methods. These limits are a suggestion only and may need to be adapted for other types of samples and according to individual circumstances, frequency of testing, history of contamination etc.
This fuel test kit contains patented capture solution for sampling from Jet A1 fuel samples.

应用

The HY-LiTE^® Jet A1 Fuel Test Kit is suitable for rapid detection of microbiological contamination in fuel tanks and distribution systems.

适用性

For examination of biomass contamination of Jet A1 and other fuel samples
