Focus Scientific

bNovate Technologies is a Swiss provider of advanced automated water quality monitoring instruments built around flow cytometry to deliver near-real-time microbial analysis. Their innovative solutions transform traditional microbiological water testing by replacing slow, manual methods with rapid, continuous monitoring that enhances operational efficiency, safety and regulatory compliance across industries including utilities, pharmaceuticals, research and industrial water treatment.

bNovate’s BactoSense CORE system uses online flow cytometry to continuously track bacterial populations in water, providing rapid detection and alerting operators to changes in contamination levels within minutes rather than days. This real-time monitoring capability helps minimise downtime, optimise treatment processes and support proactive decision-making in water quality management.

The BactoSense SMART builds on this foundation with enhanced data capabilities and advanced analytics, making it ideal for industrial and process-driven environments where detailed trend information and predictive insights support efficient operations.

For highly regulated environments such as pharmaceutical water systems and pure water applications, BactoSense PUREdelivers continuous, automated monitoring with compliance-oriented reporting and data integrity features. Designed to support stringent standards including FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and European Pharmacopoeia guidelines, this solution helps laboratories and manufacturing facilities maintain purity throughout water generation, storage and distribution.
