societe Dissolved ATP - dATP™

Dissolved ATP is the measurement of only extra-cellular ATP. The series of figures below explains how the extra-cellular ATP component contained within the sample is analyzed:

dATPT is one of two analyses in the Total Control test kit line, along with tATPT. It provides information relating primarily to the relative health of the biomass. As biomass becomes unhealthy or dies, it releases ATP into the external environment. Therefore, higher dATP is a direct result of biomass mortality. LuminUltra's dATP method is superior to competing methods, in that it measures the total amount of extra-cellular ATP, not just free or soluble dATP.
