MICA Advance E. coli is a culture-based solution for the rapid detection and automatic enumeration of Escherichia coli in drinking water (Bottled water & Tap Water). Using CCA agar, like ISO 9308-1, it delivers CFU-based results in only 6 hours versus 21 ± 3 hours with the standard method, enabling same-day decisions, faster corrective actions and easier routine testing.
Key Points:
- Same-day E. coli result in 6h vs 21 ± 3h with ISO 9308-1
- Culture-based method with results in CFU
- Automatic enumeration reduces manual reading and operator variability
- Uses CCA agar, like the standard ISO 9308-1 method
- Easy-to-use workflow with no specialized expertise required
- Ideal for drinking water routine testing and rapid corrective action
