Remel™ and Oxoid™ products are now part of the Thermo Scientific brand, combining powerful manual, semi-automated and fully automated test products and a comprehensive line of media and diagnostic products to offer a complete, end-to-end solution to quickly deliver the products you need and the quality results your laboratory depends on.

The MicroSEQ® ID microbial identification system, based on comparative rDNA sequencing of the 16S region (for bacteria) or the LSU D2 region (for fungi), is a proven method for rapid and accurate microbial identification. The optimized design, integrated workflow, and superior accuracy of the MicroSEQ® ID Rapid System enable top pharmaceutical companies, medical devices companies, public health laboratories, and government agencies worldwide to reliably perform a wide range of microbial identification tasks, including routine QC microbiology tests.

Fast, Confident PCR Pathogen Detection To Help Protect Your Business’s Brand

Detect foodborne pathogens, and other important food safety and quality targets, quickly and accurately. Empower your operations with rapid reporting to enable faster product release and interventions. Our food safety PCR assays offer qualitative detection of the major pathogens (Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli O157:H7, Cronobacter spp.) and other important targets in food and environmental samples. These PCR food testing solutions are optimized, and in many cases externally validated, for use with our Applied Biosystems™ QuantStudio™ 5 Food Safety Real-Time PCR Instrument on a broad range of food and environmental matrices.

Simplify Your Workflow With Pre-Weigh Dehydrated Culture Media

Growing pressures from higher test volumes and demands for faster time to results call for solutions that maximize efficiency without compromising the quality of your outputs. Streamline your workflow today with our convenient “Rip and Tip” Thermo Scientific™ Pre-Weigh Dehydrated Culture Media (DCM) pouches, available in 1L and 8L sizes that help you maximize productivity while reducing costs.

Capped and Bottled Quality and Safety Control From the Experts in Media

Prepared bottled media is a convenient tool in both clinical and industrial microbiology settings. That’s exactly why we offer customers a wide variety of fill volumes, bottle sizes, caps, and containers to suit your need – because one size does not fit all.

To facilitate operational efficiency in food microbiology laboratories, a new range of bagged enrichment media is designed to reduce hands-on preparation time.

The bags contain pre-weighed, ready-to-hydrate, gamma-irradiated enrichment media which eliminates the need for further sterilization. The new Bagged Media are available in a choice of formats and volumes to meet a variety of sample preparation and testing volume needs.

For added convenience and to further reduce risk of contamination, the Thermo Scientific QuickBag Enrichment Media are supplied with water pre-filled. All that is required for preparation is to break the dividing seal and mix.

“The QuickBag and FitBag Media Formats are a response to customers who already appreciate the benefits of our large volume Thermo Scientific Dry-Bags Enrichment Media,” says Mark Truesdale, senior director, food safety solutions, microbiology, Thermo Fisher Scientific. “By offering these convenient formats in lower volumes, food microbiology laboratories of all sizes can avoid the time-consuming weighing and autoclaving steps, and alleviate the bottlenecks associated with traditional media preparation.”

The QuickBag and FitBag Media Formats are available in a choice of volumes: 2.7, 4.5 and 9 liters.

Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a broad selection of high-quality culture media for food and water applications. Our base culture media, supplements and ready-prepared plates and convenience format media are tested for quality and performance before, during, and after manufacturing to make sure the finished product meets the food microbiology laboratory’s testing needs.

SureTect System is designed to quickly and accurately detect foodborne pathogens in a broad range of foods and associated samples. Take advantage of simple and streamlined workflows that utilize a single same-day or overnight enrichment step, direct lysis protocol for DNA release, and universal cycling parameters.

The RapidFinder™ STEC Detection Workflow is a complete, validated screening and confirmation system for E. coli O157:H7 and the six non-O157 STEC (Shiga toxigenic E. coli).

The Applied Biosystems™ RapidFinder™ STEC Detection Workflow enables screening for E. coli O157:H7 and six strains of Shiga toxigenic E. coli—the Big 6 STECs—in as few as 12 hours, providing a rapid, validated workflow for STEC detection in raw ground beef and raw beef trim.

The RapidFinder STEC Detection Workflow is a two-stage real-time PCR method, designed to accurately detect and confirm the presence of E. coli O157:H7 and the ‘Big 6’ serogroups of non-O157 STEC (serogroups O26, O45, O103, O111, O121 & O145), defined by the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) as adulterants in the American beef industry.
