The proposed innovation is new tests for Enterococcus sp. (ENT) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) bacteria in water that can be done on-site, with an automated detection system that requires the user only to pour a sample into a test cartridge and insert the cartridge into an instrument. This will be transformative because, currently, these samples must be sent to a laboratory and then run in a 24-48 hr test, with results available typically 2-4 days after collecting the sample. Our test results will be available in less than 24 hr, and in only a few hours for a sample that is highly contaminated. Our Industry Partner is Pathogen Detection Systems, Inc. (PDS), which is commercializing technology licensed from Queen's for detection of E. coli and coliform bacteria. PDS is now a subsidiary of Veolia Water Technologies, in Veolia's "Endetec" group of companies.

拟议的创新是对水中的肠球菌（ENT）和铜绿假单胞菌（PA）细菌进行新的测试，可以在现场进行，自动检测系统只需要用户将样品倒入测试盒中并将盒插入仪器中。这将是变革性的，因为目前，这些样本必须被送到实验室，然后在2 - 4 -48小时的测试中运行，通常在收集样本后2-4天获得结果。我们的测试结果将在不到24小时内提供，对于高度污染的样品，只需几个小时。我们的行业合作伙伴是病原体检测系统公司。(PDS)该公司正在将皇后学院授权的检测E.大肠杆菌和大肠菌群。PDS现在是威立雅水务技术的子公司，隶属于威立雅的“Endetec”集团公司。
