Applications include Enumeration Methods, Detection Methods, Demonstration of Capability (DOC), Media QC, and Validation/Verification.
- Cultures visibly fluoresce under ultraviolet (UV) light to differentiate QC strains from true contaminants
- Strains are tested using proteomic, phenotypic, and functional methods to ensure their authenticity, stability, and compatibility with common detection technologies
- GFP reporter is integrated into the chromosome to provide superior stability
- Instant dissolve pellet reduces preparation time
- Easy and economical refrigerated storage
- Online Certificate of Analysis provides detailed strain information
- Traceability to reference cultures ensures authenticity
UV-BioTag™ microorganisms contain a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) marker that produces fluorescence of the culture visible under UV light. This allows for easy differentiation of these control strains from contaminants. UV-BioTAG™ Swab kits include six swabs each containing one lyophilized pellet of an individual microorganism strain.
