For the semi quantitative detection of Nitrite Reducing Bacteria.

Nitrite Reducing Bacteria (NRB) are microorganisms that have the ability to reduce nitrite which in turn generates corrosive ammonia and gases (nitrogen). Causing issues such as microbial induced corrosion (MIC) for many industrial sectors, particularly as Nitrite Reducing Bacteria can diminish nitrite corrosion inhibitors.

For the semi quantitative detection of Sulphate Reducing Bacteria.

Sulphate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) are microorganisms that have the ability to produce corrosive sulphide which can, in turn cause a variety of issues for many industrial sectors – such as the corrosion of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and masonry, discoloration of metal fluids and the production of foul-smelling gases.

The shape of the Anaerobox™ also makes it easy to store and will save space in the incubator over more conventional round jars with bulky lids that include valves and gauges.

The 2.5L Anaerobox™ holds up to 12 disposable, standard petri dishes at a time or 21 x 55mm plates, the practicality of the Anerobox complements the innovative technology which makes AnaeroGen and CampyGen sachets so easy to use. The Anerobox polycarbonate lid is secured to the base by four clips that make it easy to open and close.

• Oxoid Resazurin is an indicator strip for use with anaerobic jar systems

Atmospheric Generation System. The 2.5L jar will hold up to 12 disposable plastic petri dishes. The jar’s polycarbonate base is secured to the lid by four spring loaded clips. The clips themselves allow self-venting in the unlikely event of a pressure build up. A carrying handle is also provided, enabling the jar to be transported safely between the bench and the incubator.

An easy to operate vacuum relief screw permits the inlet of air to the jar, thus overcoming any difficulty which could be caused by the presence of negative pressure.

The AnaeroJar is lightweight and robust with excellent space saving features; there are no external clamps or protruding valves and the carrying handle tucks away into the lid of the jar itself.

AnaeroGen is a kit for use with the AnaeroJar. It produces an anaerobic atmosphere rapidly without the use of water or catalyst. No hydrogen is produced. The oxygen is absorbed rapidly without build up of pressure. The final atmosphere contains less than 1% oxygen supplemented with carbon dioxide - ideal for optimum growth of anaerobes and increased colony size.

Our Legionella Industrial testing kit is perfectly designed for water outlets needing repeat testing and includes everything needed to complete 5 tests. It uses our exclusive Hydrosense filter technology, enabling the isolation of bacteria through conventional plumbing connections (compatible with US ½ inch NPT and ¾ inch BPT fittings). The pipe fitting also conveniently connects directly to standard shower hoses.

Ideal for use in higher risk areas with water sample points that require frequent monitoring, including industrial cooling systems, extensive water networks within hotels, healthcare facilities, residential buildings, and commercial premises.

Our comprehensive and sensitive Legionella testing solution is designed for water safety. This advanced one-time-use kit uniquely detects all serogroups (1-15) of the most dangerous Legionella species, Legionella pneumophila in just 25 minutes.

Easy-to-use test; it can be carried out by anyone in any setting and requires minimal training. Our visual instructions provide a simple step by step guide.

Ideal for cooling towers, water storage units, decorative fountains, taps, showers, spas, swimming facilities, and more, this solution offers exceptional coverage and reliability. Its unparalleled sensitivity and comprehensive detection capabilities make it the preferred choice for high-risk areas, ensuring the highest level of Legionella detection.

Our comprehensive and sensitive Legionella swab test is designed for testing surfaces and biofilm. The process involves collecting a sample through swabbing areas where biofilm accumulates e.g. shower heads, taps, storage tanks, pipework and the water edge of pools or hot tubs.

Biofilm is the common habitat for Legionella pneumophila. This slimy substance protects this bacterium from heat or chemical treatments.

This method is highly recommended for evaluating surfaces in environments such as cooling towers, water tanks, sinks, showers, hot tubs, misters, sprinklers, air washers, and humidifiers, among others.

Buffered Peptone Water Broth is used as a diluent or for non selective enrichment of microorganisms such as Salmonella species or E. coli from foods and environmental samples prior to selective enrichment and isolation. Microorganisms that may be present in a food product can be sub-lethally injured by food processing techniques and may not be recovered by direct selection techniques. Buffered Peptone Water Broth promotes the recovery of those microorganisms that may be injured.

Neogen® Swab-Sampler with 5 mL Letheen Broth is a convenient and quick collection device for environmental sampling and testing over small surface areas.

Sample collection is easy with the attached swab. The vial provides ample headspace for sample addition and vortexing to release organisms from the swab. This sampling device is decontaminated through gamma irradiation for long shelf life. The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) approach is the most widely accepted food safety management protocol worldwide. Sample collection products from Neogen® are a crucial part of this approach to identify potential food-borne hazards and pinpoint where they reside. Portability, stable enrichment media, and easy-to-handle swabs and sponges are designed to test for a wide variety of potential hazards and deliver accurate results. They are engineered to safely gather, hold, and secure contents from the collection site to the lab without leaking or compromising the sample.

The primary use of Letheen Broth is to neutralise the bactericidal action of quaternary ammonium compounds and for determining the phenol coefficient of cationic surfactants. Letheen Broth is also used in hygiene swabbing practices where neutralising quaternary ammonium compounds are required.

The use of Neutralising Buffer is advised for surface testing for the presence of microorganisms that may occur on dairy and food equipment disinfected with chlorine or quaternary ammonium compounds. It is capable of inactivating the bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect of chlorine and quaternary ammonium composites. Neutralising these chemicals is crucial in accurately detecting the presence of potentially harmful microorganisms. Using Neutralising Buffer in the microbiological examination of surfaces in standard methods to test dairy products and foods.

D/E Neutralising Broth, developed by Dey and Engley, is used in disinfectant testing where neutralization of the antiseptics and disinfectants is important for determining its bactericidal activity. It is effective for neutralising a broad spectrum of disinfectants and preservative antimicrobial chemicals, such as ammonium compounds, phenolics, iodine, chlorine preparations, mercurials, formaldehyde, and glutaraldehyde. D/E Neutralising media will neutralize higher concentrations of residual antimicrobials than other standard neutralising formulations, such as Letheen media, Thioglycollate media, and Neutralising Buffe
