WATER ECOscience is a leader in Australia for the provision of specialised pathogen testing services associated with the water, wastewater, environmental, Biosolids and Reclaimed Water (Reuse) to regulatory requirements

Our Specialist Pathogen Services include the analysis of the following parameters:

• Environmental Pathogens

We have been conducting several joint projects with our associates in the USA and the EU, and are now able to offer a more rapid and reliable method for monitoring and testing

Our most recent has been the Naegleria Fowleri rapid identification technique which offers several advantages over the conventional approach

Our fully experienced teams at each of our facilities are able to provide the following services:

• Utilises ELISA as the confirmatory technique
• Extremely high sensitivity to N. fowleri and low reactivity to other Naegleria species
• Low sample volume required (typically 1 L)
• Provides identification and numeration of protozoa
