Systems and methods for rapidly assessing biocide contamination and biological contamination treatments found in fluids used for subterranean well treatments and related operations are provided. In some embodiments, the methods include providing a fluid including an aqueous base fluid and one or more microorganisms; introducing a first sample of the fluid to a first culture device including an indicator reagent, wherein over a period of about 48 hours or less the indicator reagent indicates a first color change in the first sample of the fluid; and determining a first count of the microorganisms in the fluid based, at least in part, on the first color change.

Materials and methods are described herein that include forming a porous polymer network with antimicrobial and antifouling properties. The antifouling portion may be a polymer, such as polyethylene glycol, and the antimicrobial portion may be a metal, or a different cationic species, such as a quaternary ammonium salt. The method generally includes forming a reaction mixture comprising a formaldehyde, a bridging group, and moieties with antifouling and antimicrobial properties.
