AquaVial - Model AVK1 -Single Pack Bacteria Water Test Kit
AquaVial is a truly innovative water testing kit, capable of detecting even low levels of dangerous bacteria, biofilm and fungi present in water. The kit has the widest bacteria detection range of any rapid microbacterial testing available to consumers and provides results in as little as 30 minutes. Aquavial is an easy-to-use screening test that can quickly detect water quality issues before they become a serious health risk.
Drinking or using contaminated water can have serious negative health effects, especially among children and the elderly. AquaVial offers a few advantages over competitive water test kits:
- WIDEST BACTERIA DETECTION RANGE OF ANY RAPID MICROBIAL TESTING AVAILABLE TO CONSUMERS: AquaVial detects disease-causing bacteria such as E coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and other Pseudomonas and strains known to be responsible for biofilm formation in water system
- RELIABLE AND FAST RESULTS: Every test kit provides 100% reliable results in as little as 15 minutes
- 3 TESTS IN ONE: One vial test for bacteria, biofilm and fungi
- NO EXTRA COSTS: No lab analysis required and additional fees paid
- BROAD RANGE OF APPLICATIONS: Aquavial can be used in a wide range of applications, including: testing the effectiveness of water treatment (before and after), testing drinking water from municipal water supply, well water, pool and hot tub water, cooling water, clear beverages, etc.

AquaVial™ is a truly innovative bacteria in water testing kit, capable of detecting even low level of bacteria, biofilm and fungi contamination. The proprietary T-Cup unit included in the kit concentrates water samples ten times to increase test sensitivity, thus offering reliable results every time.
AquaVial is based on a cutting-edge technology developed at the University of Waterloo in Canada. It uses functionalized nano-particles that attach to the outer cell membrane of microorganisms. It is a non-specific, quantitative method that does not require any growth media-, and this is what makes the test different.
The test is based on a color change produced by a change in aggregation of the nanoparticles in the solution, as they attach to the cell membrane, which leads to a shift in color from pink to purple, and a decrease in color intensity (from colored to clear) that can be seen visually observed, or measured using a colorimeter.
The product was originally developed to test the water quality in dental offices, and validated by two independent water research centres in Canada.
AquaVial can be used in a wide range of applications, including: testing the effectiveness of water treatment (before and after), testing drinking water from municipal water supply, well water, pool and hot tub water, cooling water, clear beverages, etc.
AquaVial™ is developed and manufactured in Canada by Genemis Laboratories, TechAlliances’s 2016 Innovation Award Finalist.
