Microorganisms in liquids are quantified by the membrane filtration method. The advantage of this method is that it allows accurate detection of bacteria, yeasts and molds when low counts in a high sample volume are anticipated. Transferring a membrane filter onto an agar medium is a critical step that can be a source of secondary contamination, especially if tweezers are used. Therefore, it is essential to reduce this risk.
The Microsart® @media product line excels in minimizing the risk of secondary contamination as touch-free membrane transfer rules out membrane manipulation. Moreover, these products accelerate your workflow as just a few work-saving steps are all it takes to use them. Microsart® @media products impressively meet the most stringent quality assurance standards, providing consistently reliable, results and time-saving convenience.
As a result of the combined development , the active lid of @media fits perfectly onto the Microsart® @filter base for an effortless and reliable transfer of a membrane filter onto an agar medium.
In addition, the liftable interior lid provides convenient access to select colonies after incubation for further analysis.
