KWIK-STIK™ PLUS M-Z

MicroBioLogics® offers products designed to enhance your laboratory's quality control program by adding efficiency and reliability. KWIK-STIK™ Plus microorganisms are designed to meet the needs of laboratories requiring QC microorganisms that are a limited number of passages from the reference culture. KWIK-STIK™ Plus microorganisms are two passages from the reference culture and come in canisters containing five units of a single strain. KWIK-STIK™ Plus microorganisms have the same characteristics as the KWIK-STIK™ with two additional features:
- KWIK-STIK™ Plus microorganisms are lyophilized microorganism preparations that are two passages from the reference culture.
- A peel-off label contains a Certificate of Assay that specifies the identity and traceability of the microorganism to a reference culture, and the number of passages the microorganism preparation has been removed from the reference culture.
