Microbial Detection
Water municipalities need to verify their production, disinfection, and distribution systems are delivering microbiologically safe, potable drinking water. Food producers need to be sure the water they add, use to wash, and process their products is safe.
Charm provides rapid indicator tests for bacteria and viruses associated with fecal contamination including coliform, Escherichia coli, Enterobacteriaceae, and coliphages. Both Charm products detect a single coliform and/or E. coli bacteria in a 100-mL water sample in 48 hours or less.
Peel Plate Microbial Tests
Peel Plate bacterial tests are simplified culture methods for detecting micro-organisms. Each test contains non-selective or selective medium and follows conventional microbiologic procedures for time and temperature of incubation. An air gap between the plate and cover allows colony picking and determination of microbial morphology. Charm offers Peel Plate tests for aerobic bacteria (Peel Plate AC), coliform (Peel Plate CC),听Enterobacteriaceae听(Peel Plate EB),听E. coli/coliform (Peel Plate EC), lactic acid bacteria (Peel Plate LAB),听Pseudomonas听(Peel Plate PS),听Staphylococcus Aureus听(Peel Plate SA), Yeast and Mold (Peel Plate YM), and Yeast (Peel Plate Y) for use in dairy products, ground meats, other foods, contact surfaces and water. AOAC-RI has granted Performance Tested Methods厂惭听certification to Peel Plate AC, EC, SA, and YM tests. Additionally, Peel Plate EB has AOAC-OMA and MicroVal harmonized certification.
CertaBlue Microbial Detection
CertaBlue is based on rapid detection of several metabolic processes that take place within the growing organism.听
The system can detect color changes through highly sensitive optical sensors. All vials are ready-to-use, prefilled with media, and equipped with CertaBlue sensors.听
PathoGel
PathoGel is a single-use, self-contained test with a selective medium designed to detect coliform, E. coli,听and hydrogen sulfide-producing听Enterobacteriaceae听(e.g.,听Salmonella听and Citrobacter) in food, beverages,听and waters.
PathoGel contains a special 鈥済elling鈥 agent that allows quantitation of colony-forming units and determination of presence/ absence.
E*Colite
The Charm E*Colite test is used to screen water, foods, and juices for coliform and听Escherichia coli. This vial test provides a positive or negative result in 24 hours for coliform and 24 to 28 hours for听E. coli.
There are approximately 250 million people world-wide who suffer from food allergies which can often be fatal.
