Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) are those bacteria that can obtain energy by oxidizing organic compounds or molecular hydrogen while reducing sulfate to hydrogen sulfide. They are also know as Sulfide Generating Bacteria (SGB) and commonly found in anaerobic environments where they aid in the degradation of organic materials like secondary oil recovery effluents estuarine waters deep wells cooling waters metalworking fluids water-based hydraulic fluids and petroleum based products. They can survive up to 600 DegC and cause pitting corrosion on metal structures that are exposed to sulfate-containing water by cathodic depolarization. They also play a role in the anaerobic oxidation of methane below the seabed in the transition zone which leads to heavy production loss. Since sulfate is also found in some formulations of or the other used in water treatment viz corrosion inhibitors coolants etc. Sulfate acts as a hydrogen acceptor produces hydrogen sulfide and ferrous sulfide. These together form a malodorous black slime. In some case bubbles of H2S rise though the water and cause objectionable odors. The corrosion of iron by sulfate reducing bacteria is rapid and unlike ordinary rusting is not self limiting. Our specially developed test kit with a unique 10ml sample size gives a much detailed quantitative analysis of the SRB count in a sample. BACTASLYDE SRB is supplied in boxes of 5 along with the complete instructions set for a complete quantitative analysis of the contamination.

Water contaminated with bacteria is a major cause of water-borne disease in humans. Enteric diseases like diarrhoea dysentery typhoid paratyphoid gastroenteritis cholera etc. are caused by the tiny menaces viz bacteria. Detecting these dangerous but unseen predators is quite a tough task and normally it is the domain of the white coated microbiologist who works amidst sterile conditions and a lot of hush hush secrecy. No longer! Modern science has now made testing so easy and convenient. Just do it yourself. Our unique water potability test kit helps you detect coli form group of bacteria with ease and convenience. These coliform bacteria are found in sewage as they are present in the intestine of man and animal and are generally accompanied by the harmful disease causing bacteria. ChekNsee helps to check water from all kinds of sources viz. taps purifiers coolers storage tanks rivers ponds springs etc. This extremely simple and convenient test can be carried out by anybody anywhere i.e. homes offices factories shops banks hospitals hotels schools etc.
