Verified and Accepted Technology

Mycometers patented technology has been tested and verified by US-EPA (2011). They described linearity between microbial level and fluorescence signal and a very high reproducibility. Samples were tested by two technicians using different equipment and gave a relative standard deviation on the mean as low as 1.4 and 8.7 %. The calculated standard deviation calculation included variability contributions from 4 sources, sampling – analysis – analyst – instrumentation.

Mycometer technology is an international standard method (ISO 16000-22:2025) and an American standard method (ASTM D8527-25) and is used by accredited laboratories. Mycometer technology has been a DOD preferred technology with the US Department of Defense since 2010. It is used in numerous independent peer-reviewed scientific publications.
