Legionella test kits - the fastest in the world

Our easy-to-use Legionella test kits detect Legionella pneumophila sg1 antigen in water samples and biofilms, which is the species that causes over 90% of Legionnaires’ disease cases.

The results are delivered within 25 minutes, are highly accurate and have a recovery rate of 80% (lab culture is 64%). They come in singles or as test kits and are available in 2 sensitivity levels – Ultra and Multi.

Adding Hydrosense to your water management program will mean you have real-time knowledge, about the presence of Legionella, when conducting your water quality testing.

These Legionella test kits are our most sensitive, offering detection levels of 100 CFU/l for water tests and 200 CFU per swabbed area for swab tests. Ideal for countries where there are more stringent action levels and for industries where the Legionella infection risk is high.

These Legionella test kits have sensitivity levels of 1,000CFU/l and 10,000CFU/l. The higher concentration of Legionella antigen, the stronger the colour of the positive line, which can be matched against the visual scorecard to give an indication of the level of Legionella present.

The majority of Legionella is locked in biofilm, which is the slimy layer which forms on wet surfaces.

This Legionella test kit is used to swab the surface where biofilm is present and is very useful for locating the source of infection.

Recommended for testing cooling towers, water tanks, sinks, showers, misters, sprinklers, air washers, humidifiers and pool and spa surfaces.

The Hydrosense Ultra Legionella Swab Test is an easy option for quickly sampling surface biofilms.

Biofilm is common and can be found inside pipework, taps, shower heads and water tanks, and is often overlooked when it comes to Legionella risk. This Legionella test kit is excellent for locating the original source of infection.

• Sensitivity: 200 CFU per swabbed area
• Sample Area: 10 cm²
• Shelf Life: 18 months from the date of manufacture
