Water quality analysis
Testing packages
Water quality analysis Water quality analysis is essential for ensuring safe and healthy water use. It is an important process that makes it possible to identify and quantify various chemical, biological and physical water parameters that affect its suitability for consumption, agricultural use, industrial needs and other applications.
MicroBio Laba is a multidisciplinary institution that includes microbiological and physicochemical departments. These departments perform different types of testing. Some of them are described below.
Chemical water analysis: total ion content
Physical water analysis: dry residue
Stages 
Cost of water analysis The cost of services is available in our price list. However, the final price may depend on additional factors. For example, when ordering analysis for a large number of samples or collecting samples independently, the service cost may be lower. To find out the exact amount, please contact a manager for a consultation.
Instructions
One of the key conditions for growing a high-quality and abundant crop is a sufficient supply of water. Water is required for irrigation, land reclamation and tank mixtures. In this context, the condition and composition of the water are important factors. These parameters affect the uptake of nutrients by plants, the effectiveness of fertilisers and various preparations, as well as the overall condition of the soil.
If you need a thorough and reliable water quality assessment, you can contact MicroBio Laba. Our agricultural laboratory is equipped with modern equipment for advanced chemical testing and can help determine a wide range of water parameters. To order the service, please contact our specialists by phone or online through the website.
A complete chemical analysis can be performed whenever there is a need to determine the quality and composition of water. For example, water can be submitted for testing before preparing solutions for crop treatment. Agricultural producers need to know how hard the water is and whether it meets the required standards, as this affects the effectiveness of applied preparations.
The same need may arise before diluting special preparations that support plant development or before preparing tank mixtures. Water analysis is also recommended before irrigation or land reclamation. In each of these cases, the water used should meet the required parameters and provide suitable conditions for the intended procedures.
During laboratory testing of chemical composition and quality, specialists also determine the pH level. This parameter affects the uptake of fertiliser components by plants. For full nutrient uptake, an optimal pH level should be maintained. Otherwise, effectiveness may be significantly reduced. Similar effects may also occur in cases of increased water hardness.
Taking these factors into account, water plays an important role in crop production. By determining its composition and quality, it is possible to create more favourable conditions for plant development and avoid additional costs caused by increasing fertiliser application rates. This is why specialists recommend submitting samples to the laboratory whenever such a need arises.
Water testing is one of the services provided by the laboratory. It is comprehensive and allows a number of important parameters to be determined. The test result provides valuable information about the composition of the water and its suitability for use.
Water testing is performed using modern equipment and instruments that make it possible to determine all required parameters. The client only needs to collect samples according to the procedure specified by the specialists of the independent laboratory. Each sample is tested for the parameters relevant to the client’s request.
Laboratory specialists can test water quality and its constituent components. This involves testing the relevant parameters. In particular, the following characteristics may be determined:
In each case, independent laboratory water analysis is performed in accordance with established requirements and using high-precision equipment. This helps ensure accurate, high-quality and informative test results. The data allow the client to understand whether the water is suitable for land reclamation, irrigation and the preparation of agricultural preparations and mixtures.
Water quality analysis at MicroBio Laba is carried out using several methods. This is possible because the laboratory includes microbiological and physicochemical departments. Each department determines specific parameters, which together provide detailed information about the condition of the water and its suitability for a particular use. In general, all methods can be divided into two groups.
This type of testing is required to determine the overall ion content accurately. Water from natural bodies of water contains many types of ions, including magnesium, potassium and calcium. Hydrogen ions should also be considered separately. Their content is determined by pH values, which are important for irrigation, land reclamation and other procedures. To obtain data on all relevant parameters, samples should be submitted to the laboratory for analysis.
This type of analysis provides information about the dry residue level. This refers to the amount of non-volatile substances contained in the water. These are mainly mineral components, including inorganic salts of calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and bicarbonates.
In addition, laboratory specialists determine the content of chlorides, sulphates and organic substances. Gravimetric and calculation methods are used to determine the level of these components. These methods make it possible to identify the category to which the water belongs.
Agricultural producers in Ukraine use water for irrigation and other procedures from various sources available on a specific land plot. This may include mains water, a natural source such as a body of water, or a storage facility. The laboratory can perform chemical composition analysis of water from any source.
It is only necessary to collect the samples correctly and deliver them within the timeframe specified by the specialists. Following the recommendations is important, as it is one of the factors that affects the accuracy of the results. This applies both to water quality and composition.
The analysis is performed in accordance with established requirements. Appropriate equipment is used to determine each parameter, and a number of procedures are carried out. However, there is a general sequence of actions that applies regardless of the type of testing:
It is important to note that the analysis is more accurate when sample collection requirements are followed. These include selecting the appropriate container, collecting the minimum required volume of water and following the recommendations for water sampling.
Before ordering the service, clients usually want to know the cost. To check the price, please refer to the price list available on the website. However, the final amount can only be confirmed during consultation with a manager. This is because additional factors may affect the price. In particular, the cost may be lower when ordering a large number of analyses or when samples are collected independently.
The test results contain valuable data for agricultural producers who want to improve yield and create favourable conditions for crop development. The test report specifies the content of certain elements, hardness level, acidity and other parameters that may affect crop development. For example, exceeding certain parameters may reduce the effectiveness of fertilisers. If such findings are identified during testing, the agricultural producer can take measures to improve water quality.
There are several reasons to order water analysis. The main one is the ability to identify problems with water quality. Test reports provide detailed data on specific parameters, allowing an accurate conclusion to be made about the condition of the water. To order the service, simply submit a request on the website or contact a manager by phone.
