Merck Millipore to showcase microbiology testing

0

Merck Millipore, the Life Science division of Merck, will feature innovative technologies to address industry needs at the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) conference in San Francisco from 16-19 June. Among the products to be presented at booth #1523:

For the pharmaceutical industry

  • Steritest Equinox Family: Steritest products deliver sterility testing consistency and reliability for filterable and non-filterable pharmaceutical products
  • Milliflex® Quantum: A rapid fluorescent based technology designed for fast quantitative detection (down to 1 CFU) of microorganisms over a broad range of filterable matrices, without destroying the microorganism. Requires a fraction of the time needed for traditional microbiological methods.
  • MilliPROBE® System: An in-process early warning system that provides effective detection of mycoplasma in biological product in 4 hours, compared to 28 days for traditional growth based methods.

For the food and beverage industry

Complete solutions for pathogen testing including granulated, dehydrated culture media that reduces dust and enables faster dissolution, fast and convenient Singlepath and Duopath immunoassays, and RT-PCR assays and sample prep kits. The EZ-Stream pump allows direct transfer of liquid eliminating the need for intermediate waste containers.

Environmental Monitoring

Products for air and surface monitoring including: particle counters, active microbial air samplers, settle plates, contact plates and slides, and swabs.

In-Booth Presentation

Ensuring Product Safety: Testing the Final Product is not Enough

Monday, June 18 1:00 – 2:00pm

Presented by:

Roland Heinrich, Ph.D., Vice President, BioMonitoring

Wolfgang Schmidt, Head of Marketing, BioMonitoring

Also at the Merck Millipore booth:

  • Harleco® brand dyes and stains: Provide outstanding contrast, color, and clarity in sample specimens. The stain solutions use Certified Biological stains and cGMP manufacturing for all products to ensure the highest quality possible. Bacteriological microbiology stains for Gram and TB detection offer easy application and reproducible, stable results
  • ColorpHast® pH test strips: Strips allow rapid measurement of pH with minimal preparation. Features include high precision, easy pH readings, clear color differences, no bleeding, and no contamination of the medium under investigation. Unique flip top packaging prevents strips from spilling out of the container
  • Milli-Q® Integral system: Dual point-of-delivery saves space and increases convenience, while lowering running costs and water waste with exclusive Elix® technology
  • Muse™ Cell Analyzer: Analysis of cell viability, apoptosis and cell cycle with miniaturize optics, effortless operation and simple sample prep.
  • Amnis FlowSight® System: This intuitive instrument operates like a conventional flow cytometer but provides imagery of every cell.
  • EasyCyte™ Benchtop Flow Cytometry: Multiparameter analysis of single cells with validated, optimized, plug-and-play assay kits for immunology, signaling and stem cells
