Description
BioFix Lumi luminescent bacteria according to DIN EN ISO 11348-3 are freeze-dried test organisms for bioluminescence-based water and environmental analysis. Each pack contains 20 × 1 ml of freeze-dried material together with reconstitution solution, specially packed in cooling bags to support controlled handling from receipt to use. After reconstitution, the bacteria are applied in standardised toxicity and inhibition assays that rely on light emission as the readout, as defined by the referenced ISO method. The format suits routine laboratory workflows that require ready-to-reconstitute aliquots rather than continuously cultured stocks. Supplied by manufacturer Macherey-Nagel, this kit is intended for environmental analytics laboratories performing batch or series testing under the DIN EN ISO 11348-3 framework. Unit quantity corresponds to the 20 ml total of filled vials; the product is a biological test reagent set, not a general culture medium, and should be integrated into validated BioFix Lumi or equivalent luminescent-bacteria test procedures.

Questions about Lumin.bacteria, 20x100
What is this article?
Lumin.bacteria, 20x100 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in Reference substances & reagents (other), inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
A reference substance has a stated identity and a stated content, used to check a method or to standardise a titration. It is a more tightly specified article than a reagent grade bottle of the same name. The lot's certificate is part of the product.
A reference material is the article against which another result is compared. Its value is stated, and the uncertainty of that value is part of the product. An ICP or ion standard is a solution of known concentration. A volumetric standard is for titration. A chromatography standard is the peak you match. The grade names, including pharmacopoeia and ASTM, say which impurities were limited. Identity is checked on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Medicinal grades follow the European Pharmacopoeia and USP.
