We make use of unique Microtox analyser M500 to carry out our biological monitoring. Microtox® rapid toxicity detection is an in vitro test system that uses bioluminescent bacteria for the detection of toxicity in water and is used as a screening system to detect the relative toxicity of a sample. Applications include the testing of samples containing biological toxins, industrial effluent, industrial process waters, municipal effluent, drinking water eco toxicological samples, hazardous waste, soil, sediments, storm water and medical products for bio reactivity. Areas of biological monitoring we cover as follows;
-Microtox® microbial toxicity screen with the use of vibio fisheri as test organism
– Marine algae growth inhibition test
-Copepod acute toxicity test
-Oyester larval development toxicity test
-Acute toxicity etc
