Pathogenic Bacteria Testing (E. coli, Salmonella) in Irrigation Water
In agriculture and forestry, irrigation water plays a critical role in ensuring crop productivity and livestock health. However, the presence of pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella can pose significant risks to both environmental and public health. Eurolab offers comprehensive testing services for these pathogens in irrigation water, providing accurate, reliable, and actionable data that is essential for maintaining compliance with international standards.
The process begins with the collection of water samples from various points within an irrigation system. These samples are then transported to our state-of-the-art laboratories where they undergo rigorous analysis using advanced microbiological techniques. The primary focus during this phase involves identifying the presence and concentration levels of E. coli and Salmonella. This is critical because even low concentrations can indicate potential contamination from fecal matter, which could lead to serious outbreaks if not addressed promptly.
The methodology employed by Eurolab adheres strictly to international standards such as ISO 6817 for total coliforms and ISO 20743:2015 for E. coli detection. For Salmonella, the FDA Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) procedure is used, ensuring consistency with global best practices. Additionally, our laboratories utilize culture-based methods alongside molecular biology techniques like PCR to achieve high sensitivity and specificity.
A significant aspect of this service is the post-test analysis which provides detailed reports outlining findings along with recommendations for corrective actions where necessary. Our team works closely with clients to interpret results correctly and offer tailored solutions aimed at preventing future incidents while maintaining operational efficiency.
