bioMérieux Launches PREVI™ Isola Automated Pre-Pour Media (PPM) Streaker
LabTech Systems, an Australian health care equipment and services company, and bioMérieux signed an exclusive worldwide license agreement for LabTech Systems’ automated pre-poured media (PPM) streaker, Previ™ Isola.
The fully automated pre-poured media (PPM) streaker is an innovative, patented robotic system for the automation of routine agar plate processing undertaken in microbiology laboratories. This pre-analytical phase still remains manual and time-consuming in most laboratories worldwide. In the current trend of laboratory concentration, there is strong demand for automation that can standardize processes and provide traceability, timesaving and optimized workflow, as well as improved safety.
The Previ Isola will offer:
Greater number of isolated colonies
Customer configured set-up and sort
Easy management of bi-plates
Accommodation of up to five different types of media at one time
LabTech Systems’ patented robotic instrument, which provides a solution at this early stage of
the microbiology process, has major synergies with bioMérieux’s pre-poured media range. It also enhances bioMérieux’s current portfolio of automated solutions including BacT/ALERT® for blood culture, VITEK® 2 for identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing and DiversiLab™ for microbial typing.
