Paracel is One Step Closer to Legionella Accreditation

May 22, 2015

  

Paracel is pleased to announce that it has received a Certificate of Proficiency from the ELITE Program for Legionella analysis from the Centre for Disease Control in Atlanta.  This program is viewed as the standard in the industry for North America and is geared towards setting a high bar for Legionella analysis.   Successful completion of the CDC Performance Testing samples for Legionella and becoming an ELITE Member is one of the final steps in our validation process for this method.  With this complete, Paracel has applied to CALA to have this analysis included in our upcoming biennial on-site assessment in June and ultimately to be added to our scope of accredited tests.
