PurTest Bacteria Water Test Kit includes:
- 1 bacteria test bottle
- 2 Nitrate/Nitrites test strips
Drinking dirty water puts your health in great danger. Statistics have shown that waterborne diseases are a growing human tragedy, killing more than 5 million people each year – mostly children. At home, you may be drinking volume of water from the tap; however, although treated, tap water may contain certain bacteria which are invisible to the eye, such as E.coli and coliform bacteria.
This PurTest Bacteria Water Test Kit allows you to screen your home water from any harmful bacteria that can endanger your health, as well as that of your family members’. It includes three tests – one for one for E. coli and coliform bacteria, and two for nitrates and nitrites.
Nitrates and nitrites are undetectable without testing. They are odorless, colorless, and tasteless. This bacteria water test kit with bacteria nitrates/nitrites test is recommended in households with infants, pregnant women, nursing mothers, or elderly people, as they are the most susceptible to nitrate or nitrite contamination.
How to Use PurTest Bacteria Water
PurTest Bacteria Water Test Kit is very easy to use. It comes with an instruction leaflet to guide you through the simple test procedure. Take out the Bacteria Test vial and set upright on a flat surface. Collect water sample or turn on tap to a very slow stream. Carefully twist off cap and fill vial 1/2 inch below the top (to 5 ml line) – make sure not to overfill or spill the bacteria growth powder in the vial. Replace cap and twist on tightly. Shake the vial vigorously for 20 seconds. Place the capped vial upright in a warm area (70° - 90°) where it cannot be disturbed for 48 hours. Do not expose the vial in direct sunlight.
How to Read the Result
After 48 hours, you can observe the color of the liquid WITHOUT opening the vial. A Purple Color indicates negative result (Original color, no Bacteria were detected); and a Yellow Color indicates positive result, which translates that your water is highly likely contaminated with harmful bacteria.
