Dehydrated culture media
Lab M is known for the quality and range of its dehydrated culture media. A programme of continuous development ensures that more are being added all the time.
As well as an extensive range of conventional microbiological culture media, we have developed: specific products that comply with ISO testing requirements in the food industry; novel media such as HarlequinTM chromogenic media that support the culture and isolation of specific groups of organisms using the presumptive diagnostic power of chromogenic reactions; and dehydrated culture media to enhance techniques such as ELISA and PCR.
Developing custom blends is also a speciality.
