Reference microorganisms for your quality control microbiology testing needs, including growth promotion testing (USP General Chapter <61> Microbiological Examination of Nonsterile Products: Microbial Enumeration Tests, <62> Microbiological Examination of Nonsterile Products: Tests for Specified Microorganisms, and <71> Sterility Tests).
Quantitative QC microorganisms
Each Instant Inoculator™ contains a precise quantity of authentic reference microorganisms coated and preserved on the applicator device. Each device delivers up to 10 doses of ≤100 CFU per 0.1 mL aliquot. The microbes rapidly transfer from the device into the rehydration solution, and you are ready to begin your growth promotion test.
The Instant Inoculator™ is an accredited reference material under ISO 17034. Every device is manufactured using authentic reference microorganisms that are fewer than 3 passages from the reference culture.
Highlights:
- User-friendly device designed to streamline microbiology workflows
- Organism is rapidly rehydrated and ready for your testing needs
- Stable for 1 year from manufacture date when stored between 2°C to 8°C
