Keep Legionella at Bay with rqmicro.COUNT
Published on by Ivona Begic Mandic, Marketing project manager at rqmicro AG in Business
Cooling tower systems present perfect breeding grounds for Legionella bacteria because they contain pools of warm water that are open to the atmosphere. Legionella bacteria, particularly in the summer, will generally thrive in such an environment if the water is not routinely disinfected. Using flow cytometry technology, rqmicro.COUNT is able to identify overlooked “Viable but non-Culturable” (VBNC) bacteria , which are alive but do not grow in the laboratory using standard culturing techniques.
