That is the same technology used in Covid and pregnancy tests. Our easy-to-use Legionella test kits detect Legionella pneumophila sg1 antigen in water samples and biofilms, which is the species that causes over 90% of Legionnaires disease cases. The results are delivered within 25 minutes, are highly accurate and have a recovery rate of 80% (lab culture is 64%). They come in singles or as test kits and are available in 2 sensitivity levels Ultra and Multi.Adding Hydrosense to your water management program will mean you have real-time knowledge, about the presence of Legionella, when conducting your water quality testing.
