Use of a disposable filtration capsule with a non- occluded membrane filter element in the place of a standard spiral wound cartridge allows for the more rapid and quantitative filtration, recovery, and quantitation of microorganisms in liquid, particularly surface waters, well water, tap water, and the like. The capsule allows a severe reduction in the water sample size tested, substantially minimizes risks of cross-contamination, and provides a leak- proof vessel for shipment. Risks of infection of laboratory personnel and time of analysis are both reduced. Costs of measuring contamination by microorganisms such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium is lowered significantly while increasing the accuracy and dependability of the measurement.

L'utilisation d'une capsule de filtration à élément filtrant à membrane non occlus à la place d'une cartouche en spirale classique permet une filtration quantitative, une récupération et une quantification plus rapide des micro-organismes présents dans un liquide, notamment des eaux de surface, des eaux de puits, de l'eau du robinet et similaire. Ladite capsule permet une réduction sensible de la taille de l'échantillon à analyser, minimise sensiblement les risques de contamination croisée, et permet la fourniture d'un récipient étanche pour l'expédition. Le risque d'infection du personnel de laboratoire et le temps d'analyse sont réduits. Les coûts d'évaluation de la contamination par des micro-organismes tels que giardia et cryptosporidium sont réduits sensiblement alors que la précision et la fiabilité de la mesure sont accrus.
