Hygiene monitoring systems
positive
and negative
indicators will start to
blink and will keep blinking throughout the whole incubation
and readout process. Wait until the incubation and readout
process is completed before removing the indicator.
Do not move or remove or change the Indicator placement
once a reading process has begun, as it could lead to errors in
the incubation and/or readout process.

Once the incubation and readout process is completed, the
positive
and negative
indicators will stop
blinking and the Auto-reader will indicate the µg of protein
quantity found in the sample by turning on the corresponding
Quantitative Protein Level LED Indicator. A ticket will be
printed as well detailing the protein quantity along with other
useful information related to the readout process.
The protein quantity found on the sample is also used to
obtain and inform a readout result depending on the Protein
Quantification Threshold Mode and threshold values selected
on your Auto-reader. Please refer to the
Interpretation of
results of PRO1 indicators
section for more information.
After a Readout result is informed remove the indicator from
the incubation position an press the
button once to
reset the incubation position to its stand-by state.
Note:
The color of the solution on the PRO1 indicator can
be used for a qualitative reading only if the protein pen is
removed when the program ends. An audible alarm will be
set off 30 seconds before the end of the incubation program
to warn the operator that the incubation time is close to be
completed. If the protein pen is not removed as soon a result
is informed the color of the solution will continue to evolve.
