Culture media for the microbiological testing of food, feed, or water must be prepared with pure water that complies with specifications described by the ISO 11133:2014 standard. Adhering to these water quality criteria can improve test accuracy and reproducibility, and a modern means of delivery can support greater lab efficiency.
Join us to better understand:
- ISO 11133 background and requirements for water used for preparation and performance testing of culture media
- The impact of water contaminants on culture media
- The comparative suitability of two different water sources on the performance testing of culture media
- How your lab’s water source can impact lab productivity, accuracy, and traceability
