ATP bioluminescence method

The ATP bioluminescence method would detect any contaminated bacteria, if the bacteria were growing over its detection limit in the product. When many samples must be checked, it is possible to select whether each product is aseptic or not in a short time. Dubious samples would be tested by the ordinary plate method. The ATP bioluminescence method is one of the most available sterility tests for initiate screening.
