Bacterial Pollution Kit Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Bacterial Pollution Kit (Product Code: SLE/EB/04) is a classroom microbiological water testing kit used to detect E. coli and total bacteria in up to 20 natural water samples in school and college biology and environmental science lessons. A sterile, ready-to-heat culture medium and sterile Bi-Petri dishes let students check local water for coliform bacteria within one 45-minute class period. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Is the Bacterial Pollution Kit Used For?

Students collect water from sources such as a pond, stream, well, rain barrel or tap, then plate each sample on the prepared medium in the Bi-Petri dishes. Because E. coli is widely used as an indicator of faecal contamination, comparing colonies from different sites opens up discussion of sewage, animal waste, runoff and why drinking water is treated. With capacity for 20 samples, a class can split into teams, each testing its own source, and pool the results into a simple map or bar chart of local water quality.

Good microbiology habits matter: collect samples in clean containers, label every dish before plating, keep lids closed after inoculation and wash hands afterwards. Colonies need time to develop after the class session, so plan a second, shorter look at the dishes; treat all grown cultures as potentially harmful and dispose of them through your school’s biological waste routine. As a microbiology teaching kit it is meant for education, not as a substitute for professional drinking-water analysis.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The number of kits, allowing up to 20 water samples per kit.
• Whether you also need an incubator, extra Petri dishes or a colony counter for the same practical.
• When you plan to run the practical, so the expiry date of the quoted batch can be checked against it.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies the Bacterial Pollution Kit to schools, colleges and environmental education programmes in India and international markets. Because the kit contains a sterile culture medium, ask us for the batch details when you request a quotation; one enquiry can also cover incubators, Petri dishes and colony counters for the same practical.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many water samples can one kit test?
One Bacterial Pollution Kit tests up to 20 natural water samples for E. coli and total bacteria, so a class can split into teams, each checking a different pond, stream, well or tap, and then compare results.

How long does the practical take?
The Bacterial Pollution Kit is designed for one 45-minute class period to set up the tests. Colonies then need time to grow before they can be examined, so plan a shorter follow-up observation of the dishes afterwards.

Who supplies the Bacterial Pollution Kit?
The Bacterial Pollution Kit is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, of Ambala, Haryana, India. The company quotes schools, colleges, education departments and dealers in India and international markets through its contact page and enquiry cart.

What is the shelf life of the culture medium?
For the Bacterial Pollution Kit, shelf life depends on the culture medium, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and plan the practical so the kit is used within that date.

Do I need an incubator?
An incubator is not listed as part of the Bacterial Pollution Kit. Please contact us for guidance on incubation conditions and on whether your classroom set-up is suitable before you order the kit.

How is the culture medium prepared?
The culture medium in the Bacterial Pollution Kit is supplied sterile and ready to heat, so it only needs warming before it is used; there is no weighing or mixing of dehydrated powders in the classroom.

Can the results be used to declare water safe to drink?
No. The Bacterial Pollution Kit is an educational screen for E. coli and total bacteria; decisions about drinking water should rely on professional laboratory testing, not on classroom results from this kit.
