Microbiologic Effectiveness Clause Samples

Microbiologic Effectiveness. There are two main producers of hollow-fiber membrane filters: ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Uzima. The Sawyer7/6B filter was microbiologically tested in its ability to remove Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium parvum, and Klebsiella terrigena from surface water (Hydreion, 2005). The testing showed that it removed more than 99.99% of protozoan parasites and over 99.99% of bacteria (Hydreion, 2005). ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ PointONE filter does not remove harmful viruses; however, their Point ZeroTWO Purifier is capable of removing such viruses (▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2017). Uzima filters utilize the same technology and have a similar design. BCN Research Laboratories completed microbiological testing of the Uzima Filter model UZ01. The filter was tested to determine its effectiveness at removing the fecal coliforms: Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter sp., as well as E. coli (BCN Research Laboratories, 2015). Similarly, to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ brand filter, UZima removed over 99.99% of these pathogens (BCN Research Laboratories, 2015).
