Pre-poured plates target food industry

In a move that marks an extension to its range of ready prepared microbiological culture media, Lab M has launched the Pinnacle brand, a new line of pre-poured plates.

Pinnacle brings together Lab M’s experience in the development, manufacture and supply of dehydrated culture media (DCM) and expanded plate pouring capabilities at the company’s new UK headquarters. The result is a combination of high quality DCM prepared as ready-to-use plates by the manufacturer, under a stringent quality management system in a GMP environment.

The first products to be available in the Pinnacle range are focused on food industry applications. Listeria Chromogenic Agar for the isolation of Listeria monocytogenes and Tryptone Bile Glucuronide Agar for the isolation of Escherichia coli will be followed by CSIM for the isolation of Cronobacter sakazakii from milk and milk products and chromogenic ABC medium for the isolation of Salmonellae.

Also joining the range is PINNACLE mLGA, a selective chromogenic medium for the simultaneous enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliforms in drinking water.
