Antimicrobial resistance management

Ready-to-use Agar Dilution panels

With an increase in the numbers of bacterial isolates resistant to first-line antibiotics, there has been a revival in the use of older drugs including fosfomycin. Although several commercial tests based on different techniques have been developed, Agar Dilution (AD) is considered the best method for performing Fosfomycin susceptibility testing so far.

The AD Fosfomycin 0.25-256 is the first and only (international patent pending) ready-to-use commercially available kit for performing the agar dilution antimicrobial susceptibility testing, in compliance with the CLSI and EUCAST standards, with 4 months shelf life at present.

The AD Fosfomycin panel comprises 12 wells, containing the antibiotic incorporated into an agar medium in different concentrations, i.e. 11 two-fold dilutions (0.25-256 μg/mL).

Food & beverage applications

Glucose OF Medium ISO 21528

Semisolid medium for determining the oxidative or fermentative metabolism of bacteria

Glucose OF medium is a semisoild medium used for the identification of gram-negative bacteria on the basis of their ability to oxidize or ferment glucose.

This medium complies with ISO 21528:2017 for confirmation of Enterobacteriaceae from food, animal feeding stuffs and environmental samples.

Biopharma applications

Quanti-CultiControl

for growth promotion testing of culture media

The Quanti-CultiControl are lyophilized, quantitative microorganism preparations to be used in industrial laboratories for Quality Control purposes. Processed as directed, these preparations provide a challenge of <100 CFU per 0.1 mL, which is a concentration usually suitable for several pharmaceutical applications, including growth promotion testing of culture media to be employed in sterility testing. These microorganism preparations are derived from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC®).

The Quanti-CultiControl are suitable for the Growth Promotion Test recommended by the international Pharmacopoeiae, without need of intermediate dilution steps, since each rehydrated suspension generates less than 100 UFC for 0.1 mL inoculum. Each suspension (1 mL) allows 10 inocula.
