Here are the results of the surveys we conducted on our Linkedin page with the SuperMicrobiologistes regarding the incubators used in microbiology laboratories. Everything you want to know about microbiological incubators should be here, but if not, feel free to ask us!
Microbiology labs around the world have one thing in common… they all use incubators. Often, even more than one! Without incubator, there would be no standardized analysis, no bacteria, and no lab microbiology. The incubator is THE microbiologist’s essential tool. But here’s the thing, not all incubators are the same. In this article, we’ll give […]
In a microbiology lab, there’s one thing we all dread: cross-contamination. Yes, that witch can strike at any time, whether on the bench or worse… in the incubator! And according to our latest LinkedIn survey, more than half of you have already experienced contamination in your incubator. A “contaminated” incubator is a disaster. It can […]
As we highlighted in our article : How to choose a gravimetric Dilutor, if there’s one piece of equipment you can’t afford to get wrong in a food microbiology lab, it’s the gravimetric diluter. One bad choice and disaster strikes! The “superpower” of SuperMicrobiologists is that nearly 20,000 of us work in microbiology labs every […]
The gravimetric dilutor, has become an indispensable tool in food microbiology laboratories in just a few years. We are not afraid to say that it is THE central piece of equipment in the food QC lab (standardization, traceability, productivity, etc.). Needless to say, when switching to a new model, you can’t afford to make a […]
We surveyed the SuperMicrobiologists working in food microbiology labs to find out which culture media preparators they prefer (for the production of enrichment broth). Three brands of media preparators came out on top in this survey, and we’ll introduce them in this article. Contents: What is a media preparator? A media preparator (also called Media […]
Before adopting a technology in your food microbiology laboratory, it’s essential to take the time to discuss with other users to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the technology. Our mission at SuperMicrobiologistes is to create connections between food microbiology laboratories to facilitate this kind of field experience feedback. For this article, we had the […]
Buying a new lab blender is usually not a financially or organizationally perilous event for a microbiology lab. However, choosing the wrong lab blender could prove to be quite… “annoying” for the peace of the laboratory. In this article, we will review all the criteria to consider before purchasing a new blender. Contents: What is […]
We’ve been waiting for months! Here is (finally) the new ISO 7218:2024 standard that replaces ISO 7218:2007 (and its 2013 amendment). But what changes will this new version bring to our accredited microbiology laboratories? To find out, we asked Nadège Pioche and Muriel Coignard to explain the differences between the old and new versions. 1 […]
A rapid microbiology technology that looks like a coffee machine, a sexy yet enigmatic website, and several SuperMicrobiologists talking about it. That was all we needed to walk through Microbs’ door and request a demonstration of this new Rapid Microbiology Method (RMM). Content : Warning: This article was commissioned by Microbs from SuperMicrobiologists. Usually, for […]
