TVC Dipslides

Quick and simple method for measuring bacterial load (Total Viable Count) in cfu/ml. Ideal for dental waterlines.

NB- TVC dipslides give users an idea of bacterial load. They should be monitored in patterns of behaviour and used as an indicator of possible issues in organic water contamination. Water lab analysis should be used for more detailed analysis on repeat issues.

Method: Simply let water run for 10 seconds, remove paddle from tube and insert in water. Return to tube and leave to incubate for 5-7 days. Repeat monthly or quarterly.
