Automate water testing and prevent crop contamination by connecting the KRAKEN™ pathogen detection device to agricultural irrigation systems.
Contaminated agricultural water can pose significant threats to public health and lead to costly product recalls.
When water used for irrigation becomes contaminated with bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria, these microbes may be transferred to the produce. Pathogens can often survive for extended periods, leading to a risk of contaminated produce entering the market and spreading foodborne disease.
Once the source of contamination is confirmed, the product is recalled from the market. Product recalls often lead to devastating short- and long-term financial consequences associated with lost sales, replacement costs, and elimination of the pathogens.
Managing agricultural irrigation can be challenging even without the added stress of worrying about water contamination. KRAKEN pathogen detection systems continuously monitor the water source to provide real-time updates, warning of bacterial contamination before the water has been used on the crops.
Connecting our automated pathogen detection system to an irrigation canal system is easy and only requires accessible WiFi/GSM network and power. The KRAKEN™ can take water directly from the system without any sample preparation, using pathogen-specific detection sensors to continuously monitor the water for contamination and deliver critical water quality data.
