Labège test kits
Reliable, proven solutions for detecting and counting corrosion-causing bacteria
Implementing effective microbiological corrosion prevention and control strategies is essential to extend the service life of systems, ensure operational reliability and minimize the risks associated with equipment failure.
This requires a combination of advanced monitoring techniques, specific treatment programs (in particular guiding the choice of bactericides), to assess and monitor the growth of specific bacteria, thus ensuring the durability and optimum performance of systems.
Sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRBs) and thiosulfate-reducing bacteria (TRBs) are responsible for corrosion phenomena in oil, gas and geothermal installations, as well as in processes and cooling circuits.
Our solutions
Drawing on our expertise in microbiology, we have been producing customized culture media in our laboratories since 1996.
Commercialized under the name of Labège test kits, these media are specially designed for the detection and selective counting of the SRBs and TRBs involved in corrosion processes, as well as total aerobic bacteria and total anaerobic bacteria.
Why choose our Labège test kits?
Customized to your needs
Our test kits are produced-to-order, so they can be specifically adapted to the salinity of the surrounding environment.
Selectivity and sensitivity
Based on the Most Probable Number (MPN) technique, our test kit offers selective detection and counting of bacteria, ensuring an accurate assessment of microbiological contamination.
Adapted to field environments
The easy implementation of the Labège test kit makes it particularly suitable for use on site, thereby allowing accurate monitoring even in harsh field conditions.
Reliability
Produced in France, in our laboratories, with state-of-the-art expertise, the Labège test kits guarantee consistent quality and reliability for accurate results every time.
Business areas
Our products are distributed worldwide. We supply customers in the oil, industrial and network sectors, offering reliable solutions for corrosion monitoring.
