Dynaflow's microbiology laboratory provides us with the capabilities to incubate, grow and access the viability of non-pathogenic microorganisms. Microbiology capabilities include automated cell counting and viability, optical microscopes with digital photo and video capturing, Petri plate counting, ultraviolet/fluorescence counting, SDS-PAGE Electrophoresis, and incubation and grow out facilities. Standard analyses performed include trypan blue cell viability, cell counting, Total Coliforms, Fecal Coliforms, Enterococcus, Heterotrophic plate counts, algae, and zooplankton counting and viability tests. The laboratory has the following equipment for conducting experiments and measurements:.
