For Laboratory, Milk Reception & Process Testing Bentley Instruments have designed devices to automate your milk samples preparation. Agiflex 270 - Homogenisation of samples before analysis Ideal for laboratory use when preparing samples before analysis, the Agiflex 270 is a compact device designed to homogenise all types of containers such as sample trays, racks, flasks and tubes. Adjustable rotation speed from 17 up to 52 rpm. Paraffin Dispenser The paraffin dispenser allows automatic dispensing of melted paraffin in vial or tube racks. Designed specifically to fit your containers, this dispenser is mainly composed of a set of automation and a customised trolley for carrying trays. -
Ensure pipettes are performing properly and operator skills are standardized Manage your pipette calibration program and assess operator competency. Used in combination with the Artel PCS, the PCS Software ensures your pipettes and their operators are working together to generate accurate and reproducible results. The PCS Software provides scheduling for pipette calibrations and interim performance verifications; complete documentation and pipette inventory management, even for pipettes calibrated outside of PCS Software – and it’s ideal for standardising pipetting technique and assessing operator competency. -
QC microorganisms with Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) markers It’s not uncommon for food samples to inadvertently become contaminated with control strains used in the laboratory. This leads to false-positive results which can have severe financial and regulatory implications. UV-BioTAG, our line of reference strains containing green fluorescent protein (GFP) markers, make it easy to distinguish standard microorganism strains from laboratory control strains. Optimised for highly visible fluorescence, UV-BioTAG strains provide better stability because the GFP marker is integrated into the chromosome rather than the plasmid. With UV-BioTAG, you can quickly and reliably establish whether a positive test result can be traced back to a control strain cross-contamination issue, or if it is from another source. Applications & Test Methods- Enumeration Methods
- Detection Methods
- Demonstration of Capability (DOC)
- Media QC
- Validation/Verification

Quantitative spore-forming QC microorganisms for spoilage detection methods Introducing EZ-SPORE, from Microbiologics®. Spore-forming pathogens can present unique challenges for food laboratories that are conducting tests to detect these contaminants. That’s why food microbiology labs across the globe rely on EZ-SPORE quantitative microorganism preparations for validating their spoilage detection methods or for disinfectant qualification studies. EZ-SPORE preparations provide a concentration of 104 CFU per pellet, making microbiological challenge testing for spore-formers quicker and easier. Applications & Test Methods- Daily food process controls
- Spoilage detection methods
- Disinfectant Qualification Studies

Test gram negative and gram positive bacteria in the same test panel TECHNOPATH partners with Biolog for rapid and accurate identification of over 2,900 species of aerobic and anaerobic Bacteria, Yeasts, and Fungi using the Biolog Gen III Identification Phenotypic technology. Biolog’s advanced phenotypic technology provides valuable information on the properties of strains, in addition to a species-level identification. Molecular methods such as 16s sequencing and MALDI-TOF provide no information about the properties of the strain. Biolog’s carbon source utilisation technology identifies environmental and pathogenic microorganisms by producing a characteristic pattern or “metabolic fingerprint” from discrete test reactions performed within a 96 well microplate. Culture suspensions are tested with a panel of pre-selected assays, then incubated, read and compared to our extensive databases.- No Gram Stain
- No pre-tests
- No follow-on tests
- One panel for both Gram Negative & Gram Positive bacteria
- One minute set-up
- Over 1350 species coverage

Hands-on training & performance verification improves pathogen detection. Data collected from environmental sampling of surfaces is highly dependent on the operator. Understanding and quantitatively characterising the percent recovery and consistency of sample collection by an operator drives improved detection and prevention of pathogens. Performance verification involves determining the percent recovery and consistency of an operator who collects samples in an environmental sampling program. Introducing Enverify™, a quantitative positive control for environmental sampling programs and comprises a flat substrate with a specific quantity of viable microorganisms coated on the surface. The microbes are safe-to-handle and are coated across a 10 cm x 10 cm area. Enverify™ provides a standardised tool for hands-on training and performance verification of operators that collect samples in environmental sampling programs. Enverify™ is compatible with contact plates, swab sampling devices, and sponge sample devices. Activities Involving Environmental Sampling:- Environmental monitoring for pathogens or indicator organisms
- Sanitation verification using ATP or indicator organisms
- Verification of hygienic restoration following adverse events
- Verification of containment during construction activities

Rapid and accurate determination of milk products chemical composition Semi-automatic and automatic versions from 100 up to 300 samples/hour The DairySpec FT uses FTIR spectroscopy for extremely accurate and reliable milk and dairy products chemical composition determination. Analysing up to 64 parameters simultaneously, the DairySpec FT is the optimal solution for the quality control of raw and processed materials. It gives access to the very fine analysis of milk and dairy products chemical composition (fat, proteins, casein, lactose, solids, urea, citric acid, fatty acids profil, FPD). Highly reliable and accurate for milk (raw, UHT, ...) and dairy products (cream, whey, permeate, retentate, ...) analysis. Adaptable to measure other products and parameters upon request. The spectra are standardised in real time to optimise calibrations transferability, stability and qualitative analysis (adulteration). Direct access to spectra for the development of new calibrations. 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Surface ATP UXL100 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water Plus - Total ATP AQT200 3M™ Clean-Trace™ Water - Free ATP AQF100
