The Glo Germ Mini Kit is the easiest entry into the world of fluorescent trainings. The 2 oz fluorescent gel will be enough to get you started and testing germ simulations. 

We have discussed the Glo Germ Premium Mini Kits and Classic Kits, but they still may not be right for your organization or situation. Some of you may still be hesitant about the impact that Glo Germ can have on your organization or individual processes.


Spending a larger amount of budget on an unproven kit seems like a risky move… and we agree. That is why the Mini Kit is a great way to try out the benefits of Glo Germ without spending a large amount.

The Glo Germ Mini Kit can still do everything that larger kits can do, but it does it in smaller quantities.

For example, here are some great uses for Glo Germ:

  • Hand washing trainings
  • Orientations for new employees or students
  • Germ spreading lessons and demonstrations
  • Hand shaking demonstration
  • Coughing effects
  • Proper glove removal (if applicable)
  • Proper gown removal (if applicable)
  • Blood simulations
  • Cleaning competitions
  • Cleaning trainings
  • Inspections
  • Quality assurance verifications

The contents of the Glo Germ Mini Kit include:

  • 2 oz. Glo Germ Fluorescent Gel
  • Small UV LED black light (keychain)
  • Brief Glo Germ instructions
  • Bag carrying case

So, the capability of the smaller kit is the same, but you won’t get as much Glo Germ Gel and the illumination will be quite a bit less than the larger black light flashlights.

You may have to isolate the area you would like to illuminate (hands, equipment, etc.) in a darker place, but the effect is the same. If you plan to show the effects of not hand washing in normal light, then we recommend thinking about getting a larger kit. The Premium Mini Kit isn’t too big of a step up to get 10x the light and double the Glo Germ.

We estimate that the 2 oz. bottle of Glo Gel will last about 30-50 applications on hands and 100-150 equipment swabs (depending on the amount applied). If you are looking for more than that then we suggest looking into the other kits that have a 8 oz. Glo Gel bottle AND a 4 oz. Glo Powder bottle (fluorescent powder is not included in the Mini Kit).

If you are still unsure about the size of Glo Germ Kit that you will need for your organization, program or classroom then please contact us. We can discuss with you the available options and give some insight.

Please also contact us if you would like ideas on how to best use Glo Germ in your organization. We have success stories and a good idea of what works best for every type of industry.

Thank your for reading! We hope that you can also see the amazing benefits of implementing a Glo Germ Kit Training into your organization or program!
