Lovibond™ R2A/R2A Dipslide

The R2A/R2A Dipslide was developed to assess the bacteria plate counts of treated potable waters and the detection of oligotrophic heterotrophs. R2A is a low nutrient agar which in conjunction with a longer incubation period has been shown to give significantly higher colony counts.

A dipslide is an easy-to-use testing solution for microbial content of liquids or surfaces. It contains a sterile culture medium which can be dipped into liquid or pressed on to the surface to collect a sample.

These do-it-yourself tests can be used in the field and deliver semi-quantitative results quickly - with no special training or need to send samples to a laboratory.

When used on a regular basis, users can determine if disinfection protocols are effective and can identity trends over time. Routine monitoring enables early detection of bacteria and other microorganisms proliferating to avoid major issues within the facility or system.
