Mar 28 2024
BactoSense has taken microbiological water quality control to a new level. While traditional plating methods in a laboratory take several days to deliver results, the automated flow cytometer BactoSense does it on-site in only 20 minutes. This allows process optimisation and a fast reaction in case of contamination, avoiding health risks for the population.
BactoSense is a sustainable solution with a refillable cartridge, containing all chemicals required for the microbial analyses. It is used at various stages in several industries.
BactoSense, developed by bNovate Technologies, the Swiss pioneer in cell analysis, is a completely automatedand industrial online flow cytometer used for on-site water quality monitoring. BactoSense can be installed at any point of the catchment, treatment and distribution of drinking water. It provides in 20 minutes precise and reliable measurements of bacterial count, ensuring the biostability of the water through the complete process.
Made in Switzerland, BactoSense aims to become the new standard in the water industry. Its speed complements the traditional plating methods for water quality analysis, which may take several days to deliver reliable results.
