Today, you bring water samples from your system to a laboratory for microbial water quality testing. Tomorrow, our automation add-ons can measure directly in your system. This allows you to accurately monitor bacterial concentrations 24/7 up to every 5 minutes and hence to see what is happening in your system in terms of microbiology in real time. Our add-ons complement your water quality monitoring by finally adding a microbial parameter to existing chemical and physical water quality monitoring solutions

With our automation add-ons you can fully benefit from the proven strengths of existing flow cytometers meeting your individual needs. Our add-ons can obtain and process samples up to every 5 minutes (> 280 samples per day) and from as many as twelve separate sample ports. Our modular design allows for fully flexible customization and can thus accommodate for your specific needs. You are free to choose/switch the sampling frequency, the number of sampling ports, the measuring protocol, the cleaning protocol, the dilution, and the incubation temperature

On-line monitoring through flow cytometry creates value for customers in applications across multiple industries. Our add-ons strongly scale up the advantages of flow cytometry over currently used cultivation-based methods through full automation. This also reduces the time of qualified staff dedicated to tedious routine tasks such as HPC plating. With the high temporal resolution, microbial monitoring is now finally reaching the level of other water quality sensors. Furthermore, existing flow cytometry users can drastically increase their application capabilities by upgrading their measurement devices with our add-ons
