Microbiological laboratories may signal interest in the pilot round to assess the accuracy of the techniques and inputs applied in the tests for the water matrix<\/em><\/p>

To guarantee the absence of risk of contamination by disease-causing microorganisms, several microbiological controls are carried out in the water, including the Research by Giardia spp. and Legionella sp.<\/p>

Controllab<\/strong> has an extensive scope of Proficiency Testing (PT)<\/strong><\/a> for microbiological analysis of water. In July, this scope will be expanded with the inclusion of new PTs by Giardia<\/em> and Legionella<\/em>.<\/p>

The pilot round of the new PTs is composed of two items and the evaluation is made available by an individual report and a public profile of the results (without identifying the participants) for those registered. For Legionella<\/em>, research and counting will be considered.<\/p>

Those interested in participating in the pilot round, which will be sent free of charge on July 26, can sign up for participation on this link<\/strong><\/a> until the end of June.<\/p>

All tests offered by Controllab<\/strong><\/a> follow the criteria of ABNT NBR ISO\/IEC 17043<\/strong><\/a>. By participating in the PT, the laboratory will be able to evidence the accuracy of the analyzes and the reliability of the results issued in its routine.<\/p>

The table below shows the PTs of microbiological analyzes for water already available. To find out more, access the Controllab website<\/strong><\/a>, contact us through the email service@controllab.com or by phone +55 (21) 3891 9900 and WhatsApp (21) 98036-1592.<\/p>
