TapScore MBAS Water Test

When it comes to the safety and taste of your water, it's crucial to identify any potential contaminants. A recommended solution is to undertake targeted testing of surfactants such as methylene blue active substances (MBAS). This type of testing typically focuses on detecting the presence of anionic surfactants. These are commonly found in detergents or other foaming agents found in water and are tested via a color reaction process with a methylene blue dye. Detecting the presence of MBAS in a water sample can be a tell-tale sign of nearby industrial waste dumping or other related forms of contamination. The contaminants can include those deriving from PFAS/PFOS/PFOA, which are chemical compounds that have been linked to numerous health risks. The MBAS testing process can effectively serve as an efficient, reliable early warning system against potential contamination in your water supply. The Tap Score water test package is crafted to give you an easy, convenient way to collect and submit a sample for certified laboratory testing. This comprehensive package comes with all the materials you need for proper collection and submission of samples, ultimately ensuring accurate and reliable results. The reported results from this package will include a detailed analysis of surfactants in your drinking water, providing an insight using the MBAS assay technique. Testing for MBAS not only indicates potential nearby industrial waste dumping or related contamination but also determines the presence of foaming detergents that could adversely affect the taste of your water and lead to foam formation. Therefore, choosing this water test is essential if your water tastes soapy or bitter, forms a foam, or if you are concerned about contamination linked to human activity. Moreover, it's the perfect choice for those who want to determine if any industrial or anthropogenic-related contamination has impacted their water supply. Keeping an eye out for such contamination can help preserve your health and protect against potential risks. Through regular testing and analysis, you can take steps to ensure your water supply is as clean, safe, and as beneficial to your health as possible.
