Updated VDI Guidelines Now Include Flow Cytometry
Published on by Ivona Begic Mandic, Marketing project manager at rqmicro AG in Technology
We're happy to report that VDI, the Association of German Engineers, officially updated its guidelines to allow for rapid testing of Legionella using flow cytometry and specific cell separation which is used by the rqmicro.COUNT instrument. Operators of cooling towers and laboratories in Germany are now able to use rqmicro.COUNT to detect Legionella contamination in the event of an outbreak or as part of the VDI guideline 4250-2. This approval is the result of the successful independent validation performed over the course of the last 2 years. Read more about the update in our new blog.
