Applications
Pall Life Sciences ampoule media is available in a variety of selective, nutrient broths for use in municipal water, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and microelectronics industries.
-
Municipal Wastewater and Drinking Water: MF-Endo and M-FC (with and without rosolic acid) media are used when analyzing water samples for Total Coliforms, Fecal Coliforms, and E. coli.
-
Food and Beverage: M-TGE, HPC, M-Green YM, and Orange Serum broths are used in the food and beverage industry to QC final products (and fluids used in the manufacture of these products) to detect potential spoilage organisms.
-
Pharmaceutical and Microelectronics: Trypticase Soy Broth, M-TGE, and HPC may be used to test final products and process waters for total bacteria in the pharmaceutical and microelectronics industries.
-
General: Pseudomonas and KF-Streptococcal broths are highly selective media for organisms in these genera, and are used to monitor samples wherever contamination by these organisms must be prevented.
