Bacterial water analysis
Bacterial water analysis is a routine check to make sure that the concentration of potentially pathogenic bacteria in drinking water is sufficiently low to say it is safe for human consumption at a reasonable level of confidence.
Analysis is usually performed using culture, biochemical and sometimes optical methods. Specific pathogens can be quickly detected (where suspected) using molecular biology.
