Test for Microbial Contamination Using Membrane Filtration |
Request Information |
Membrane filtration is the standard test method for microbial contamination in liquids. The test sample is filtered through a microporous membrane, allowing the retention of any microbial contamination on top of the membrane. Rinsing removes residual product that might inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Once the sample is filtered, nutrient medium is added to promote growth of microorganisms for recovery. MilliporeSigma provides reliable water testing solutions based on membrane filtration to help you efficiently monitor your water.
The EZ-Product family is a range of equipments designed for membrane filtration for microbiological analysis. Its design is optimized to secure the results while optimizing the laboratory workflow.
