Copan MediaBag™: just plate it!

MediaBag™

What if we replace an agar media glass bottle with a plastic shell?

This is the question we asked ourselves a few months ago, and now, we have the answer – introducing the new MediaBag™!

Our team at Newlab has designed this innovative product combining the ease of use of bottled media with many other advantages. First, the plastic bag used in MediaBag™ is much lighter than a glass bottle, which helps reduce shipment costs. Second, it is smaller and squeezable, optimizing storage space and reducing waste. Third, its processing is quick and safe and avoids hazardous touchpoints.

Ready-to-use and automation-friendly

MediaBag™ keeps unaltered the intrinsic advantages of a ready-to-use medium: no tedious preparation that involves hazardous touchpoints, easy adoption, and a shelf life of 6 months from 2 to 8°C.

Of course, all the MediaBag™ products are tested following ISO 11133 as a guideline and are fully compatible with Cyclone, Copan Newlab’s solution to automate your industry microbiological analysis workflow. By pairing it with MediaBag™, you truly make plate preparation an effortless task.

Availability

MediaBag™ is already in stock, prefilled with many agar media to fit your laboratory workflow; all the various media are available in 0.5 and 1 L formats.

The Ultimate Guide to Forensic Sampling

News

Main 

Since the first use of DNA fingerprinting, forensic genetics has rapidly evolved. Today, scientists are implementing quicker, more specific, and more sensitive tools that could soon be applied to criminal cases and represent the future of genetic forensics investigation. That’s why now, more than ever, the importance of a neat evidence collection seems clear. 


Compliant with the latest standards
 

To answer this need, we were the first swab manufacturer to obtain ISO 18385 compliance for its forensics (4N6) products, implementing a quality system that minimizes the risk of hDNA contamination during the manufacturing process, a mandatory requirement for the global forensic community. Today, our FLOQ technology enables forensic scientists to increase the amount of human DNA recovery from every sample, facilitating the processing and ensuring optimal sample integrity.  

Successful investigations begin with accurate evidence collection 

Even with the most advanced collection devices, the wide range of surfaces and materials from which the evidence can be collected could challenge investigators to choose the proper collection method case by case: which swab to use? Does it need to be moisturized? Which swab motion to use when collecting? 

Errors in collecting and handling biological evidence can result in their exclusion from the trial, highlighting the necessity of proper sample collection and storage. 

By gathering the most relevant peer-reviewed papers, a dense bibliography, and unpublished data obtained with close collaboration with forensics professionals, we conceived this guide to forensic sampling to help forensics professionals orient through the jungle of evidence collection methods, choose the appropriate one according to any situation, and ensure the success of their investigation.
