Bug Check BF - Bacteria & Fungi Test Kits for Industry:

All water-based fluids are at risk of microbial contamination. Bacteria, fungi, algae, and mold—these unseen invaders can wreak havoc on your fluids, causing foul odors, product spoilage, and even health risks for workers. Stop using your nose to detect contamination!

 

Why Check for Bugs:

Bugs multiply at an astonishing rate—bacteria can divide every 20 minutes! In just 8 hours, a single bacterium can become 16 million cells.

Microbial growth can lead to:

- Degraded raw materials and additives (which make up 90% of your material costs!)

- Spoiled products

- Health and safety concerns for your team

Take control before contamination spreads. Bug Check BF provides a simple, scientific way to monitor contamination levels, allowing you to act before serious issues arise.

Bug Check BF delivers fast, accurate, and highly consistent results for both bacteria and fungi. No more waiting days for lab results—get the answers on-site in hours!

 

Bacteria and Fungi Dipslide Test Kits:

These Test Kits provide a simple, scientific way to monitor your level of contamination on-site, saving you money and time, so you can take action before it's too late.

All water-based fluids are susceptible to microbial contamination—bacteria, fungi, and mold. Bugs eat the complex organic molecules that are the raw materials and additives that make up 90% of the cost of your material. High levels of contamination lead not only to foul odors but also to microbial spoilage of your products and health concerns for your workers.

Avoid the long wait (and expense) of an outside lab. Test on-site! Each bacteria dip slide test kit contains all needed supplies—no laboratory equipment or lab experience required. You do not have to be a microbiologist to use the dip slide test kits.Test Kits are non-hazardous microbiological culture media. No hazard class label is required. Solutions can be simple.

Regular bacteria testing allows you to take corrective action that prevents damage to your products, reduces equipment downtime, and prevents employee health issues.

 

How It Works:

  1. Dip the paddle into the fluid.

  2. Wait 24-48 hours.

  3. Match the results to the provided chart.

No microbiology experience needed.

 

Facts About Bacteria:

- Bacteria require water to live—even a minuscule amount of water is enough.

- Even condensation on tank walls can support bacterial growth.

- With every 10-degree F rise in temperature, bacteria growth rates double, increasing the release of odor molecules.

- Bacteria eat expensive additives, degrading your materials and raising costs.

- As bacteria multiply, they produce foul-smelling waste gases.
