Biomed InTray GC cultured media for Neisseria gonorrhoerae diagnostics

InTray® GC - Prepared Plated Culture Media for Neisseria gonorrhoera

Increase your workflow efficiency with the three-in-one, point-of-care, prepared plated culture media device that’s highly selective for Neisseria gonorrhoerae. Designed for optimal growth and recovery, its integrated CO₂ environment has been carefully calculated for your needs. InTray GC’s nutritive transport system yields the best recovery of bacteria CFUs – for up to 72 hours when incubated. Developed as a sealed injection molded device, proper use and storage will conserve your laboratory space and eliminate contamination of your sample – all while reducing clinician exposure.

Additionally, a recent study by the CDC concluded that InTray GC culture devices are superior for bacterial recovery, with minimal loss in viability.
