Questions about Culture media & microbiology

Dehydrated culture medium or ready-to-use plates and tubes?

Dehydrated media are powders you weigh, dissolve, sterilise and pour yourself. They suit labs with an autoclave that use large volumes, and you control the batch size; see dehydrated culture media. Ready-to-use plates and tubes save preparation time and give consistent quality from batch to batch, which helps in routine testing and audits; see ready-to-use culture media. Check the shelf life on the product page against your weekly use. Empty Petri dishes for pouring your own plates are a separate category in the menu. Unsure? Ask sales@luminixhealth.com.

What else do I need besides the culture medium?

For plating and streaking, you need tools to transfer the sample: sterile loops, spreaders and needles are in inoculation loops, spreaders and needles. If you pour your own plates, add empty Petri dishes in the right diameter. For fast checks without incubation, such as surface hygiene or identification, look at microbial identification, hygiene monitoring and rapid tests. Incubators, anaerobic systems and other equipment are grouped under microbiology in the menu. Tell us what you test and we can put together one list: sales@luminixhealth.com.

Why Culture media & microbiology?

A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
