Pseudomonas aeruginosa laboratory analysis has never been easier – simply click and pay and we will send you a sampling pack and instructions. You collect the sample and post it back to us in the pre-paid package provided. We will start the testing analysis immediately and send you the results as soon as they are available.
Unlike other labs which simply give you results, Feedwater, specialise in solving water related problems so we can explain what the results mean and can provide a full range of services to help you resolve your problem.
The Pseudomonas analysis kit is suitable for hospitals and care homes looking to keep on top of their water systems, where vulnerable patients may be susceptible to any water contaminations, the bacterium may also be a cause of concern in the water systems of food and beverage preparation factories.
What systems should be sampled?
- Health care premises in augmented care areas (Every six months)
- Drinking water with taste and odour problems (As required)
- Closed systems at commissioning (As required)
- Poultry / Broiler Farm Drinking Lines
- Pools retested following previous positive test results (See Pool analysis page)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is not often found in drinking water supplies, however its presence may be an indicator that specific plumbing fixtures and fittings are colonised. Pseudomonas is often found in systems at risk of Legionella colonisation and as such is often suitably controlled by following the recommendations of a comprehensive Legionella Risk Assessment – if you don’t have a risk assessment please speak to us.
Taking the sample
We include a pre-paid Special Delivery mail bag with your packet, you must be able to get to a post office same day as sampling. If you know this isn’t possible speak to us about our courier collection option (this is at extra charge).
To ensure the sample meets UKAS accreditation we must stress the customer take these steps in its return:
- Freeze gel packs over night and place in insulated box.
- Sample in the morning and take the packet to the Post Office before last collection.
This product requires insulated packaging to prevent the bacterial levels from changing in the post, the insulated packaging is therefore mandatory.
If you bulk order and will be sending samples back individually or in other amounts you will need us to send you individual insulated packages to return the samples. We have insulated packs of differing sizes so you can allocate as many samples as you wish to a single pack all for one price.
It is preferable the sample be taken and posted the same day to arrive within 24 hours to ensure accurate analysis. Samples can be taken Monday to Thursday but not Friday as the lab is not open weekends.
Negative test results will be ready after 2 days, for results where a positive is showing the test will take till the 3rd day before results are ready.
We also offer Pseudomonas Species Analysis separately, please contact us if you require this.
