Cymtox (UK) is wholly owned subsidiary of modern water pic. It develops and markets leading-edge water and wastewater monitoring solutions.
Online Real time Detection of toxic agents in water and wastewater monitoring of water toxicity using biosensors has become a widely accepted technique. Bacterial bio-sensors is offer simple and reproducible tests that can be automated, with reagents that can be stored. The new CTM (TM) Continuous Toxicity Monitor makes fully automatic, continuous, online testing a reality.
Certain strains of bacteria emit light when healthy, when they are exposed to toxic substances, the amount of light emitted reduces. The greater the toxicity of the sample, the lower the lights emmited. This has been shown over many years to be a reproducible effects. Measuring change in light between helaty bacteria and bacteria exposed to toxic substances will therefore indicate presence in water sample.
The CTM (TM) Continuous Toxicity Monitor automatically and simultaneously detects a broad range of toxictants including metals, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, chlorinated solvents, industrial chemicals and algal toxin. The presence of harmful contaminants in water and wastewater is detected without having to monitor for a wide range of specific chemicals.
