The MicroSEQ® ID microbial identification system, based on comparative rDNA sequencing of the 16S region (for bacteria) or the LSU D2 region (for fungi), is a proven method for rapid and accurate microbial identification. The optimized design, integrated workflow, and superior accuracy of the MicroSEQ® ID Rapid System enable top pharmaceutical companies, medical devices companies, public health laboratories, and government agencies worldwide to reliably perform a wide range of microbial identification tasks, including routine QC microbiology tests.

To facilitate operational efficiency in food microbiology laboratories, a new range of bagged enrichment media is designed to reduce hands-on preparation time.

The bags contain pre-weighed, ready-to-hydrate, gamma-irradiated enrichment media which eliminates the need for further sterilization. The new Bagged Media are available in a choice of formats and volumes to meet a variety of sample preparation and testing volume needs.

For added convenience and to further reduce risk of contamination, the Thermo Scientific QuickBag Enrichment Media are supplied with water pre-filled. All that is required for preparation is to break the dividing seal and mix.

Accurately dispense broth medium into suitable containers for food testing using the Thermo Scientific™ DiluFlux™ Pro Automated Gravimetric Dilutor.

DiluFlux Pro Dilutors are compact, easy-to-use, and designed to deliver precise quantities of diluents rapidly with the touch of a button, so that you can work more confidently and accurately.

When combined with the Thermo Scientific™ Peristaltic Pump and Thermo Scientific™ Homogenizer, your lab bench will be equipped with a flexible automated culture media solution to increase your productivity.

The key to generating analyte-specific results in 60 seconds or less is YSI’s innovative biosensor technology. Using the inherent specificity of enzymes for a single target analyte, YSI’s proprietary immobilized enzyme electrodes allow a rapid, accurate, and largely interferencefree measurement to be made in about a minute.
