Culture Media

Microbiological Control


Culture media are essential tools in quality control processes for the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food products. Their importance lies in their ability to detect, identify, and quantify microorganisms that could compromise the safety, efficacy, and quality of the products. Below, you will find lists of plates with Culture Media and Dehydrated Media:

Prepared Media Plates


Contact plates and settle plates meet or exceed USP growth promotion requirements.

Manufactured in a Class 10,000 cleanroom with Class 100 work zones.
Sterile filled media receive validated gamma irradiation treatment in accordance with ISO standards to achieve the highest available Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶.

Non-irradiated contact and settle plates have a validated Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10⁻³.

Available in refrigerated or room temperature stable formats. Thermo Scientific™ triple-wrapped irradiated plates available for room temperature storage.

Prepared media plates are supplied in packs of ten, fifteen, twenty, forty, and one hundred. Please refer to the catalog for specific product packaging.

Segmented plates containing various culture media are available.

Petri dish/plate


Petri dishes are available in sizes 15 x 60 mm, 12 x 85 mm, and 10 x 100 mm. The 15 x 100 mm and 15 x 150 mm variants include one type of medium inside. Except for the 15 x 60 mm plates, all feature interlocking stacking rings that minimize slippage during storage or handling.

Biplate


Biplates are 12 x 85 mm plates divided into two sections, designed to contain the same medium on both sides or two different media, one in each section.

Triplate


Triplates are 12 x 85 mm plates divided into three sections, which can contain the same medium in all three sections or different media in each section.

Quadplate


Quad plates are 12 x 85 mm plates divided into four sections, designed to contain the same medium in all four sections or different media in each one.

Dehydrated Media


Dehydrated culture media offer numerous benefits for customers in industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and scientific research. Below are the key advantages:

Long Shelf Life

Dehydrated media last longer, minimize the risk of contamination, and can be stored at room temperature, reducing costs.

Customization and Flexibility

They allow for the preparation of only the necessary amount and the adjustment of concentration or additives according to the customer’s needs.

Multi-Sector Use

Cosmetic Industry: Microbial load evaluation and preservation testing.

Scientific Research: Cultivation and analysis of microorganisms in academic and commercial laboratories.

Pharmaceutical Industry: Microbiological control and sterility testing.

Food Industry: Food safety analysis and pathogen detection.
