New distribution partnership expands access to Luminultra’s rapid microbial monitoring solutions in the Turkish market
Fredericton, New Brunswick – October 19, 2026 – Luminultra, a global leader in applied microbial diagnostics, is pleased to announce a new distribution partnership with OLSO, expanding access to Luminultra’s microbial monitoring solutions across Turkey.
The partnership supports Luminultra’s continued international growth and commitment to making rapid, reliable microbial testing more accessible to customers around the world. Through OLSO, customers in Turkey will have local access to Luminultra’s powerful microbial testing technologies, including its Bugcount product line, providing rapid, accurate insight into microbial activity in minutes.
Microbial activity can affect asset performance, treatment effectiveness, product quality and system reliability. While conventional microbiological methods can take days to produce results, rapid microbial monitoring helps teams identify changing conditions sooner and take informed action before issues escalate.
Based in Istanbul, OLSO specializes in laboratory and process analytical solutions and brings strong technical expertise and knowledge of the Turkish market. The company supports customers across industries including petrochemical, energy, water and wastewater, pharmaceutical, food, environmental and manufacturing.
The Bugcount® analyzer uses Luminultra’s 2nd Generation ATP® technology to rapidly quantify microbial activity, providing actionable results in less than five minutes. This earlier insight can help teams evaluate treatment effectiveness, respond to changing conditions and make more informed operational decisions.
Combined with OLSO’s local application expertise, technical consultation and after-sales support, customers can more easily access and implement rapid microbial monitoring within their operations.
“Identifying and collaborating with strong local partners is an important part of how we bring Luminultra’s solutions to more industries around the world,” says John Geisler, VP Commercial at Luminultra. “OLSO brings the technical expertise, market knowledge and customer relationships that can help us make rapid microbial monitoring more accessible across Turkey and support customers in putting that insight to work.”
The partnership marks another step in Luminultra’s continued expansion into new markets, connecting more organizations with the tools and expertise they need to better understand and manage microbiology.
