The project is to be carried out from 1 June 2023 until 30 November 2023\.

The project has been devised with the view of developing and manufacturing a rapid test kit or other molecular testing solutions to detect pathogens in natural waters, recreational waters and distributed and treated water supplies.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
