We also provide required microbiological and chemical analyses of drinking or potable water as required to meet the Canadian Drinking Water quality standards. A list of selected tests is given below:
1. pH, Alkalinity, Electrical conductivity, Turbidity, Cyanide
2. Major anions, cations and residual Chlorine
3. Total dissolved solids (TDS) and Total suspended solid (TSS)
4. Dissolved oxygen and Chemical Oxygen Demand
5. Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN)
6. Total Organic Carbon (TOC)
7. Petroleum Hydrocarbons from C6+
8. Glycols and alcohols; and
9. Metals
NOTE: For regulatory microbiological analysis of Drinking water Quality, please look for Water Microbiology under Microbiology and Nutritional Labelling Services.
Air quality of outdoor as well as indoor environment is greatly impacted by pollution generated through a variety of industrial emissions, diverse human activities and the contamination caused by mold and bacteria. Air quality indices (AQI) are numbers used by government agencies to characterize the quality of the air at a given location. As the AQI increases, an increasingly large percentage of the population is likely to experience increasingly severe adverse health effects. PBR’s services include the following air quality testing parameters including any additional test upon request of the client.
1. Bacterial identification and enumeration.
2. Mold identification and enumeration.
