Air Techniques has introduced the CleanStream Waterline Test Kit, an in-office solution designed to help dental practices test their waterlines for microbial contamination in just 15 minutes. The kit offers a rapid screening method for bacteria, fungi, and biofilm contamination, which are common concerns in dental waterlines.
The CleanStream Waterline Test Kit allows dental offices to quickly detect contamination levels above 500 CFU/mL without the need for laboratory testing or incubation. Results are available within 15 minutes and are displayed on an easy-to-read, color-coded scale, providing an efficient way to assess water quality in the practice. The testing kit is compatible with a range of dental waterline maintenance products, including straws, cartridges, tablets, and office systems.
“Ensuring the safety of dental patients is a shared goal, and this quick, straightforward 15-minute test is an essential first step in identifying whether your dental unit waterlines are contaminated with harmful pathogens that could pose a risk to patient safety, or if they are clean and free from such hazards,” said Nicole Miller, Product Manager of Dental Hygiene at Air Techniques.
The CleanStream Waterline Test Kit offers a cost-effective and convenient solution for practices, helping them avoid the potential risks associated with contaminated waterlines. The results are comparable to laboratory testing, but the rapid turnaround provides dental offices with immediate feedback.
Air Techniques supports dental practices with a wide range of products, including utility systems, digital imaging solutions, and dental merchandise. Their portfolio caters to dental offices of all sizes, from small clinics to large universities and hospitals.
