ScanVIT-E.coli/Coliforme

Detection of E. coli and coliform bacteria is one of the most important drinking water analyses. vermicon's system reduces the detection time - including also an absolute quantification of the bacteria - to only 12 hours. No other system provides such precision in this short time.

E. coli and coliform bacteria are always a primary focus of water testing. The microorganisms may cause disease if present in high concentration levels. Moreover, they constitute important indicator organisms. The occurrence of coliform bacteria and E. coli in particular is mostly an indicator for faecal bacteria contamination. Especially during the construction or renovation of fountains, sewage systems or water reservoirs contamination with pathogenic microorganisms has to be precluded right from the beginning. Thus, uncompromising rapid, specific and reliable analysis results are of highest importance because release decisions will be made according to and depending on their outcome.

Latest technology for highest requirements

vermicon has developed a detection system for coliform bacteria and particularly E. coli which allows the highly specific identification and simultaneous quantification of bacteria contained in water samples: ScanVIT-E.coli/Coliforms. The system is based on the innovative and reliable ScanVIT technology which is already applied for the detection of Legionella. With this system in one sample all E. coli cells and in parallel all coliform bacteria are detected. Thus, you get two conclusions in one test.

The system fits perfectly to legal demands. After filtration the water sample is cultivated shortly. After 9 hours at most the grown micro-colonies are identified precisely and quantified absolutely by using the gene probe technology. Absolute quantification means that every grown colony of E.coli or other coliform bacteria is identified specifically and counted subsequently.

With this testing system vermicon offers the world's most rapid detection system for identification and absolute quantification of E.coli/coliforms. Within only 12 hours the test presents highly specific quantitative and qualitative results. It provides users with entirely innovative testing options – and forms the basis of a highly efficient and cutting-edge water monitoring system.
