Environmental & Water

Environmental testing and water quality control are a major concern for public health and are subject to laws and regulations in many countries. Water-bearing systems contaminated with pathogens are a source of infection and must be tested. To minimize this risk, robust treatment and process control measures are needed. Samples must be carefully analyzed, and disinfection processes must be continually monitored to ensure pathogens of concern are inactivated to the level necessary before the water is distributed for use. Hygiena offers rapid ATP monitoring tests and same-day indicator organism testing to help streamline the testing process. Additional tests include PCR, which can quantitate the level of potential contamination, if found, with immediate action being taken to control a breach.
