Microbiological testing, Legionella testing, MPL, Nata accredited, amoeba

MPL Laboratories is NATA accredited for microbiological testing of a range of environmental and industrial samples including surface, airborne, potable, swimming pool and industrial waste samples.

They use established procedures and indicators such as heterotrophic (Standard) plate count (HPC), total coliforms, faecal streptococci, thermotolerant coliforms/ E. coli.

A major factor leading to poor quality water is the presence of high levels of bacteria, fungi and other microbes. To address this problem, MPL has developed its own in-house microbiological testing laboratory. In addition to sample analysis MPL can also supply collection equipment for microbiological water analysis. Sampling of airborne microbes is generally carried out as part of sick building syndrome surveys. Where available, microbiological results are supplied with a set of guidelines to assist interpretation.

 

Typical tests include:
