Our microbiological laboratory meets the strictest criteria for assurance of the quality of microbiological analyses and fully reflects current customer requirements and the requirements of authorities placed on the operation of a microbiological laboratory.
For the purpose of maintaining the temperature chain, we assure collection of samples using our collection vehicles, which are fitted with temperature-monitored fridges.
We use accelerated detection methods to determine pathogens, as well as standard cultivation methods, to increase the effectiveness of our services.
