Our most sensitive Legionella testing solution for detecting Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 only. Serogroup 1 is responsible for around 90% of Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks across the world.

An easy-to-use test that can be carried out by anyone in any setting, giving results in just 25 minutes. It requires minimal training and includes visual instructions which provide a simple step by step guide.

Ideal for cooling towers, water storage units, decorative fountains, taps, showers, spas, swimming facilities, and more, this solution offers exceptional coverage and reliability for the most virulent serogroup of Legionella pneumophila.

The test detects Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 by using our unique filter to trap any bacteria present, paired with Lateral Flow Immunochromatographic Assay (LFICA) technology (same technology used in Covid-19). The test isolates the bacteria and distinctly identifies the presence of serogroup 1 (sg1) on a test line with a control line to confirm the test has worked effectively.

This information enables the user to identify the presence of Legionella pneumophila sg1 risk, supporting immediate remedial action. Results are delivered onsite meaning no long waits for lab culture reports.

Highly sensitive, this test can detect Legionella pneumophila sg1 levels of ≥100 CFU/L (0.1 CFU/ml).
