be, with no further sample preparation, so no containment laboratory is required.
The chemiluminescence probes have proven to be about 600 times more sensitive than conventional fluorescence probes.
The success of this technique is due to two specially developed probe molecules made by combining a luminescent substance (a phenoxy-dioxetane) with a trigger.
The intensity of the glow can be used to quantify the concentration of bacteria. The tests are so sensitive that, for example, a count of
