1. A system for rapid analysis of microbiological materials in a liquid sample, comprising of:

  • (a) a specimen container for containing a liquid sample, the specimen container being made from a material that allows for propagation of light;

    (b) a housing having an enclosable chamber shaped for holding the specimen container;

    (c) an incubating system mounted within the housing for incubating any microbiological materials within the liquid sample; and

    (d) a spectrophotometer system mounted within the housing for propagating light within the specimen container and measuring the light absorbed, emitted or scattered by the liquid sample as the microbiological materials are incubated by the incubating system over time.
