Water plays a central role in nearly all areas of life and industry – whether as drinking water, in food production, as process water in industry, or as wastewater. The microbiological quality of water determines safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Bacterial contamination can not only pose health risks for consumers but also promote biofilm formation in technical systems – with negative consequences for operational safety and expenses.
For reliable water assessment, rapid and precise detection of bacterial contamination is essential. Equally important is the ability to distinguish between living and dead microorganisms in order to accurately evaluate real risks. Our solutions enable efficient and dependable microbiological monitoring – ensuring the highest water quality across all applications.
The microbiological quality of water is critical for health, product safety, and efficient processes. Yet in many areas of water use, time-sensitive analyses, uncertainty about contamination, and outdated methods present significant challenges.
Common Challenges:
Water plays a central role across many industries – whether as a raw material, process medium, or component of final products. Our solutions help companies optimize and reliably monitor their processes through rapid and precise microbiological analysis.

Testing water samples for bacterial contamination is quick, easy, and cost-effective with Sysmex Partec solutions. We provide a complete package: optimized flow cytometers, dedicated reagent kits, and software with ready-to-use templates and automated reports – enabling fast, clear decision-making. Our specially developed quality control processes with defined routines support you in your daily work.
Our solutions enable rapid, reliable and automated microbiological control.
With the CyFlow™ RI-300 Flow Cytometer, you can detect microorganisms quickly and easily. Experience the next level of microbiological quality control – with results in just minutes.
CyStain™ BacCount Total Kit enables rapid, reliable, and cost-effective detection of total bacterial load in water samples (total cell count). Unlike cultivation methods, it allows analysis of all bacteria in a sample, including those that cannot be detected by plating. The kit features an intuitive workflow and provides accurate detection of all bacteria.
CyStain™ BacCount Viable Kit differentiates between living and dead bacteria (viable cell count), enabling extended analysis of water samples in addition to CyStain™ BacCount Total Kit. For example, it allows monitoring of successful inactivation of harmful bacteria. The kit features an intuitive workflow.
Expanding RI-300 with the CyFlow™ AL-20 Autoloader enables high-throughput quality control analysis through a high level of automation.
