Quality culture media is at the core of effective media fills

The quality of media used in media fills is paramount as it directly impacts the reliability and accuracy of the simulation. Our commitment to providing high-quality media is at the forefront of safeguarding sterility and product safety. Explore how our solutions can enhance the reliability and accuracy of your simulations, mitigating contamination risks and ensuring pharmaceutical integrity.

Cold Filterable Media

Cold filterable media reduces preparation time by facilitating quick and easy dissolution at lower temperatures, eliminating the need for the heating and cooling steps often necessary with traditional media. This streamlined process optimizes media preparation, leading to overall time savings in pharmaceutical production.

Designed for efficiency

  • Ultrafiltered for fast and consistent solubility
  • No heating required to dissolve into liquid
  • Excellent solubility reduces risk of blockages

Pharma grade media

  • Pharmacopoeia (USP/EP) harmonized
  • BSE & mycoplasma free
  • γ-irradiated for sterility assurance

Choose the format that suits your laboratory's needs:

Dehydrated culture media (DCM):

  • Large single lots up to 600 kg
  • 500 g, 2.5 kg, 5 kg, 25 kg sizes

Bioprocess containers (BPC):

  • Plug and play with universal connectors
  • 1L, 10 L, 20 L sizes

Animal Origin Media

Cold filterable tryptone soya broth (TSB) offers a versatile and nutrient-rich medium ideal for supporting the growth of a wide range of microorganisms. Its balanced composition and high-quality formulation contribute to reliable and consistent results, ensuring the accuracy and effectiveness of media fill studies in detecting and mitigating contamination risks.
