Coliform Bath

PolyScience Coliform Baths are specifically designed for wide variety of coliform tests such as APHA, AWWA, WEF, EPA, and AOAC determinations. The baths feature an MX temperature controller and utilize a working temperature of Ambient +10° to 135°C. 

DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR COLIFORM TESTING

For applications such as Standard Method Coliform Testing, general bacteriological testing, incubation, sample tempering, and routine laboratory use. This circulating bath is designed specifically for fecal coliform contamination testing, which is an indicator of E. Coli microorganisms and other pathogens presence. This lab-friendly circulating bath features PolyScience's MX Series digital controller, a highly intuitive, easy-to-use controller that makes it simple to set commonly used coliform test temperatures, such as 44.5, 45.5, 41.5, and 35.0°C, or other temperatures from ambient +10 to 135°C.
