Contamination of this type can pose serious damages to human health since sewage can contain various kinds of bacteria, viruses or even waste chemicals from industrial processes such as ammonia, nitrates and phosphates. When surface or groundwater are used for any purpose, tests should be conducted periodically in order to ensure that its users are not being exposed to risks of any nature.

Questions
In the case that the customer does not agree with the result of the analysis, can it be redone?
The test results issued are binding. In an instance where you believe that results are inaccurate, please raise it with us and we will escalate the matter with the lab
How long, after receiving the kit for sample collection, does the customer have to send the material?
Upon receiving the kit for sample collection, the client should forward it as soon as possible to the address placed on the kit package. Our bottle is prepared to conserve the sample, but there are cases in which time is a determining factor in the reliable result of the analysis, (e.g. microbiological analysis).
What kind of contaminants can water contain if it is used for human/animal consumption, irrigation, or any other purpose?
It will depend on what kind of environment the water is located in (urban, rural, industrial area). It also depends on if there is contact with groundwater suspected to be contaminated with sewage or if it receives discharge of any type. Only an accurate analysis can tell if there is contamination and what type.
