Where It's Used

Drinking Water Surveillance

Enables quick, preliminary screening of drinking water sources for bacteriological contamination at the point of testing.

Rural & Community Water Monitoring

Screens water from wells, borewells, and community sources across villages where lab access is limited.

Field Water Quality Surveys

Used by water-quality field staff, government monitoring teams, and NGOs for on-the-spot assessment before samples go for lab confirmation.

Decentralized Monitoring Programmes

Scales screening from water source to village to block to district level, referring positive samples for confirmatory lab testing.

Schools & Institutional Screening

Suitable for educational institutions and emergency/disaster situations needing quick initial water safety checks.
