Fluorescent marker is a better tool than ATP in determining how thoroughly a surface is wiped and mimics the microbiological data better than ATP*. The use of a fluorescent marker system in ICU resulted in 40% more surfaces being cleaned**. EvaluClean fluorescent marker pens & UV Torch Our fluorescent gel has been rigorously tested to ensure it remains wipeable from all non-porous hospital surfaces. The ultra-strong 28-LED UV torch provides excellent mark visibility. Assess Use the fluorescent pens to mark equipment and surfaces and then record their location with the touch of a screen. Set reminders when to check the mark and use the torch to assess whether the invisible fluorescent gel has been cleaned away. Report Instantly view live reports, analyse by hospital, ward, room type or item. * Rutala, Gergen, Sickbert-Bennett, Huslage, Weber. Comparison of Four Methods to Assess Cleanliness.
