BACTcontrol Short-time Measurement System for E. coli in Water
Online monitoring of total bacterial count and specific bacterial count (Escherichia coli and coliforms) in water.
BACTcontrol is an "early warning system" that complements officially recognized methods for detecting microbial activity. Measurements are completed in a short time frame of 1 to 2 hours. This contrasts with traditional microbiological testing methods, which are labor-intensive, require microbial culture, and take several days (24 to 48 hours) to obtain reliable results. BACTcontrol detects microbial activity in water. It measures the specific enzyme activities of β-galactosidase (indicating coliform bacteria), β-glucuronidase (indicating E. coli), and alkaline phosphatase (total activity, biomass) as indicators of bacterial contamination. Enzyme activity is detected by adding a reagent that contains a fluorescent indicator. This reagent is a substrate specific to the enzyme of interest, and when the enzyme is present in the sample, fluorescence increases.

Sunny Trading has consistently specialized in the import and sales of automatic control and labor-saving equipment since its establishment in 1961, actively introducing the latest high-performance machinery and equipment from Europe and the United States to the domestic market. The components for production machinery that we handle are widely adopted in industries such as machinery, electrical, and chemical, and we take pride in our extensive delivery track record to national government agencies, universities, research institutions, and the aerospace industry. The delivered parts are incorporated into machines to complete large production facilities, but confirming the compatibility of the products is essential for this process. We always strive to provide appropriate products by investing technical know-how and time for specification confirmation between overseas manufacturers and our customers. Additionally, we take responsibility for follow-up services, including on-site inspections of delivered products and maintenance. Unlike general trading companies that simply import and sell goods, we pride ourselves on being a trading company with engineering capabilities. Products are commercialized as machines by manufacturers, and they are actively utilized in core industries such as semiconductors, steel, shipbuilding, aerospace, packaging, logistics, and chemicals.
