37、 interference in bottom water samples are described inAppendix X4 and Appendix X5.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method measures the concentration of ATPpresent in the sample. ATP is a constituent of all living cellsincluding bacteria and fungi. Consequently, the presence ofATP is a reliable i

38、ndicator of microbial contamination in fuelsystems. ATP is not associated with matter of non-biologicalorigin.5.2 This test method differs from Test Method D4012 asfollows:5.2.1 By providing for the rapid determination of ATPpresent in a fuel (petroleum) sample, a fuel and water mixturesample, fuel-

39、associated bottom water sample, and extracellularATP freely available in the fuel or aqueous sample matrix;5.2.2 By providing for a method to capture, extract, andquantify ATP using self-contained test device and luminom-eter;5.2.3 By providing a method of quantifying ATP present infuel or water mat

40、rices in generally less than 10 min; and5.2.4 By providing for the rapid separation of the ATP fromchemical interferences that have previously prevented the useof ATP determinations in complex fluids containing hydrocar-bons and other organic molecules.5.3 This test method does not require the use o

41、f hazardousmaterials and does not generate biohazard waste.5.4 This test method can be used to estimate viable micro-bial biomass, to evaluate the efficacy of antimicrobialpesticides, and to monitor microbial contamination in fuelstorage and distribution systems.6. Interferences6.1 Sample containers

42、 and sampling devices shall be cleanand free of both ATP and microbial contamination.6.2 Ensure that the sampling stick on theATPTest Pen doesnot come into contact with any contaminating surfaces. Con-tact with a surface or substance can cause contamination withhigh levels of ATP, giving erroneous r

43、esults.6.3 Luciferase is an enzyme, which can be inhibited ordenatured by high temperatures, the presence of heavy metals,and high salt concentrations in the sample. These conditionsare unlikely to occur except in samples containing largevolumes of bottom-water samples from storage tanks andsimilar

44、systems.6.3.1 For samples in which inhibition is suspected or likelyto occur, testing of a dilution of the sample is described inAppendix X4.7. Apparatus7.1 An example of the luminometer2is shown as a diagramin Fig. 1.7.2 WarningThe apparatus is not explosion-proof. Theinstrument should not be opera
