Biocide Rapide

TRUSTED +

Biocide Rapide™ provides a reliable indication of whether a given sample may have been dosed with an anti-microbial chemical such as Biocide.  It is a well-recognised method for the assessment of biocidal efficacy in a wide range of sample types.

INNOVATIVE +

The Test Kit can be used by simply adding your sample to an ampule of gel contained within the pack, and then incubating it at 64° C for a fixed period of 3 hours and 15 minutes. The growth of Bacillus (a safe and harmless bacteria) can then be assesed by examining the ampule post-incubation, and checking for any change in colour of the gel. If the gel does not change colour, the sample must have contained sufficient anti-microbial chemical to inhibit the growth of the Bacillus.

ACCURATE +

Biocide Rapide™ consists of ampules of gel which contain the spores of a thermophilic Bacillus and an indicator which changes from purple to yellow when growth occurs within the ampule. This simple colour-change indication technology is widely recognised as a reliable, semi-quantitative technique for the detection of the absence or presence of anti-microbial chemicals.

DEPENDABLE +

As well as being easy to use, this test kit provides a rapid indication of anti-microbial chemical presence, and in less than 4 hours, provides a reliable, semi-quantitative result. A specific Incubator is also required in order to maintain the required temperature of 64° C.
