AquaVerify
INDICA is designed for fast qualitative water microbiology workflows where the answer must be clear: present or absent.
INDICA presence/absence water testing kits Technical datasheet
INDICA is the AquaVerify family oriented to presence/absence workflows and water microbiology screening. It is designed for routine checks, field, plant or laboratory teams that need a clear initial decision before escalating to enumeration, confirmation or further investigation. It can connect with AquaVerify Cloud to document sample, batch, result and action taken.
| Field | INDICA proposal |
|---|---|
| Result type | Presence/absence |
| Recommended use | Screening, routine control and prioritization |
| Recommended user | Field, plant, internal laboratory and quality control teams |
| Cloud connection | Sample, batch, reading, evidence and action record |
| Typical escalation | ENUMERA, confirmatory method or external laboratory |
| Prudent note | Do not claim regulatory equivalence without technical and documentary review |
INDICA supports rapid decision making for laboratories, field teams and quality control teams.
INDICA workflows can feed AquaVerify Cloud so each result is linked to sample, site, operator and report.
INDICA should be positioned as a presence/absence or screening workflow, not as quantitative enumeration. If the user needs to compare loads, trends or concentrations, ENUMERA is usually more appropriate. The final decision depends on target organism, matrix and intended use.
INDICA can be useful when the team needs an operational decision on presence/absence, routine control or sample prioritization. The result should be interpreted within the internal procedure and, where relevant, complemented by confirmatory or enumeration methods.
Yes. AquaVerify Cloud can record sample, point, batch, operator, reading, result, evidence and related action. This helps maintain traceability and reporting, especially when screening is part of a broader control program.
It should not be presented as an automatic replacement. INDICA can support screening or routine control, but use for regulatory decisions depends on method, matrix, country, competent authority, laboratory and applicable scope.
Escalation is useful when screening indicates presence, when microbiological load needs to be estimated, when root-cause investigation is required or when the control plan calls for quantitative evidence.
