The Legionella Water Test Kit allows rapid detection of culturable Legionella pneumophila, all serogroups, from 10 CFU/mL in all water samples. Based on patented technology, it provides results in 48 hours instead of 10-14 days in the laboratory.

The test works with 2 elements:

• The Mini-Lab: a pocket laboratory (reusable and compatible with other test kits)
• One Legionella Water Test Kit which contains the patented reagents that reveal the bacteria.

After sampling, the bacteria are enclosed in a portable mini incubator that reproduces laboratory culture conditions.

After 48h of incubation time, the result is simple to read and operates via the reading of a strip: 1 line negative, 2 lines positive.

• Based on the culturing of L. pneumophila  allowing lab-quality results
• Fast and reliable results in 48h only
• Autonomy: easy to conduct and to carry
• Simplified scientific protocol adapted for use by all: no special scientific knowledge required
• Suitable for routine and emergency control (threshold 10 CFU/mL)
• Suitable for all domestic water network samples (showers, taps, spas, misting systems, wells, cisterns, water tanks…)
• Using a patented technology with international scientific recognition
