Call back video from may this year in the houses of Parliament. This video highlights the importance of regular water quality testing in your businesses. It can't automatically be assumed that all mains supplied water is safe for consumption. Get your water tested

🚨 Important Health and Safety Update 🚨 Research has revealed a critical insight into Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1: approximately 15% of these bacteria can survive a 70°C heat shock in water systems for an hour. Even more concerning, these surviving bacteria do not show up on standard lab culture tests, making them a hidden threat to public health as the bacterium enters a viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state. https://bit.ly/3R0jkNR In a study evaluating 12 different Legionella strains, it was found that strain Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 was the most resistant, with over 15% of cells remaining viable after a 70°C heat shock for 1 hour. Some strains were completely eradicated in less than 30 minutes, but notably, for 6 out of the 12 strains tested, 10 to 25% of cells survived a 30-minute heat shock at 70°C. These results challenge the reliability of plate culture methods for assessing the effectiveness of preventive or corrective actions against Legionella in the environment. This could explain the rapid recontamination of some water systems, despite negative results from traditional cell culture protocols after heat shock. This study underscores the importance of not relying solely on heat treatments for Legionella control. There will be VBNC in most systems, even after remedial action is taken and even in systems that are well managed. If water management plans do not include a non-culture test method that can detect VBNC bacteria these dangerous Legionella will be overlooked We must prioritise testing methods that will find both culturable and VBNC Legionella forms, employing a combination of methods to ensure comprehensive water safety to protect our communities. https://bit.ly/3KdLnWv #PublicHealth #WaterSafety #Legionella #Research #HealthTech #SafetyFirst #IntegratedApproach

Disinfection using Huwa-San TR50, job well done team! #Huwasan #Legionella #Disinfection #geopure
This is the water quality of a mains-fed system at full occupancy on every floor of the building. The slime in the photo is biofilm dislodged after injecting silver-stabilized hydrogen peroxide. Without disinfection, this solid biofilm will coat your pipework and harbor bacteria. Chemical disinfection and regular water quality testing are essential to prevent this.

Cryptosporidium can contaminate water systems through the fecal matter of infected individuals or animals. Like common waterborne bacteria such as E. coli and coliforms, it can cause gastrointestinal illnesses resembling food poisoning. Children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals are at higher risk of complications from this parasite. While Cryptosporidium is more commonly found in untreated water bodies like lakes and reservoirs, the recent incident in Devon has shown that it can also be present in mains drinking water. One of the most effective treatments for Cryptosporidium is hydrogen peroxide disinfection. Studies have demonstrated that low doses of H2O2 are successful in deactivating the parasite in both waterborne and surface contexts. https://lnkd.in/enMBcCjh
