Important Notice

 

 

Please read the Instructions for Use carefully before testing samples.  

 
The test kit should only be used as part of an investigatory process into contamination in petroleum products and associated water.  The 

test kit must be used strictly in accordance with these instructions and/or Standard Test Method IP613 or ASTM D7978 or other instructions 

authorised by ECHA Microbiology Ltd.  The results only relate to the portion of sample tested and not necessarily to other petroleum product 

in the system. Although guidance may be sought by the user on sampling and the interpretation of results, the responsibility for carrying out 

the sampling and test procedures correctly is that of the end-user and not ECHA Microbiology Ltd.  The test kit is designed to detect a 

recognized group of micro-organisms of industrial significance, but it is in the nature of microbiology that there may be micro-organisms 

present which are not detected by the test procedure.  ECHA Microbiology Ltd does not accept any liability for any decision or assessment 

taken or made as a consequence of the results obtained.
