BACTcontrol Short-time Measurement System for E. coli in Water
Online monitoring of total bacterial count and specific bacterial count (Escherichia coli and coliforms) in water.
BACTcontrol is an "early warning system" that complements officially recognized methods for detecting microbial activity. Measurements are completed in a short time frame of 1 to 2 hours. This contrasts with traditional microbiological testing methods, which are labor-intensive, require microbial culture, and take several days (24 to 48 hours) to obtain reliable results. BACTcontrol detects microbial activity in water. It measures the specific enzyme activities of β-galactosidase (indicating coliform bacteria), β-glucuronidase (indicating E. coli), and alkaline phosphatase (total activity, biomass) as indicators of bacterial contamination. Enzyme activity is detected by adding a reagent that contains a fluorescent indicator. This reagent is a substrate specific to the enzyme of interest, and when the enzyme is present in the sample, fluorescence increases.
