Test parameters:
Used to enumerate viable bacteria belonging to the following groups:
        • Low nutrient bacteria (LNB)
        • Iron-related bacteria (IRB)
        • Anaerobic bacteria (ANA)
        • Acid-producing bacteria (APB)
        • Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB)
(See our Microbiological Media section for a description of the above media and organisms).

Also lets you test for the following chemical parameters:
        • Dissolved oxygen
        • pH
        • Total alkalinity
