Lab M Forges Ahead with ISO Compliant Media Formulations
 | Through an ongoing programme of product development and new product introductions, Lab M continues to launch new formulations of its dehydrated culture media that specifically meet new ISO guidelines for microbiological testing in the food industry.
| The International Standards Organization (ISO) has recently issued guidelines for the preparation and production of culture media (ISO/TS 11133 Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs). Part 1 of the standard was issued in 2000 and set out general guidelines on quality assurance for the preparation of culture media in the laboratory. More recently, Part 2 has provided practical guidelines on performance testing of culture media. These currently take the form of a detailed technical specification, setting out the minimum acceptable performance criteria and the methodology and organisms required for quality control of specific media.
A typical dehydrated culture media (DCM) product will be submitted to a battery of tests during manufacture. Lab M tests the product in its final prepared form for all criteria. The end user need then only perform a minimal QC procedure. Lab M ISO Compliant Media Formulations now available… - Listeria Chromogenic Agar (ISO)
- Listeria Isolation Medium, Oxford (ISO)
- Baird-Parker Medium Base (ISO)
