Hi all, 

 

I am in Australia and needing to purchase an ATP test kit. 

 

I have tried googling but can't really find many available. There is alot coming up on ebay but I am unsure if they are legit or not as they are from overseas. 

 

Is there anyone that has purchased one that can help?

Are they out of stock, or are you uncertain what to purchase?

 

At least in the states, Hygiena, Neogen/3m, and Charm seem to be the most popular.    Im not sure where Neogen/3m is with there supply.   I know they were struggling with many items.

I'll echo that Hygiena, Neogen/3m, and Charm are very popular in the states. Just keep in mind that ATP testing systems can be a little expensive but can come with software packages that can trend data and provide reports. These can be helpful if used properly. Many of these companies have sales reps that are more than happy to tell you everything about their system, and set up pricing for your company because you'll likely need a steady supply of swabs.

 

When purchasing these meters I would personally avoid simply buying a meter and swabs, the support provided by the company can be helpful in learning the software and keeping yourself stocked. Buying a meter on ebay could still cost you thousands for a totally unsupported system you end up not being able to use.

Since you're in Australia, wouldn't everything non-domestic be "over seas"... I currently use Nelson-Jameson and they rarely are out of stock, this is from the US though.

Hi Chelsea, you could check with Key Diagnostics (https://www.keydiagnostics.com.au/).

 

We aren't part of the same company, but I've known them for years and if they can't help you they may be able to point you in the right direction.
