A product overview of the microbiological
fields of application
Merck a tradition of quality and service

In 1851 Heinrich Emanuel Merck wrote:
I guarantee the constant purity of my products and take full
responsibility for any disadvantage that may be caused due to
any of these products being contaminated.
Today Merck KGaA is a pharmaceutical company and this is
unique in culture media manufacturing. And we do not only still
live up to that promise by taking great care to ensure that
our products are of highest quality. We also strive to offer you
the best possible service.
Merck is renowned for its tradition of quality and innovation.
By choosing our microbiology products customers benefit
from more than 100 years of experience and from our strict
principles of quality-control and -assurance. All microbiology
products are thoroughly tested in our central quality control
laboratory before being marketed worldwide. But they also
come with wide selection of service features such as technical
support from specialists, the know-how of a pharmaceutical
supplier with audit and quality insurance programs, TSE
low risk products, clear and meaningful certificates of analysis,
compliance with standards, innovative products, convenience
products and global representation.
Every single one of our products offers best value for money.
And they have been made to work at a highly efficient
level in co-operation with other products by Merck. With this
brochure you can see for yourself as it gives you clear and
concise information about different fields of application
in microbiology, compliance of the culture medium to existing
reference methods and the corresponding Merck catalogue
number.
Food
The consequences of food poisoning caused by the consumption
of contaminated food can be severe. That is why hygiene
monitoring is such an extremely important component of safe
food production. Merck has developed a range of innovative
products for the food and beverage industries that are capable
of rapidly and objectively providing answers to all current questions of hygiene. Dont take any chances. Get that safety extra
from Merck.
Water
Sometimes you just cant believe your eyes: Water that looks
clear and pure may well be sufficiently contaminated
with pathogenic microorganisms posing a threat to health.
With our water testing products you can be sure that each
and every hygienic parameter is absolutely below its
limit because no potentially infective microorganisms will
be present in the water of the production.

reliability.
Merck manufactures all dehydrated culture media in compliance with the formulations as specified in the European Pharmacopoeia (EP), United States
Pharmacopoeia (USP) and reference protocols as outlined in international standards like ISO, FDA-BAM, AOAC, APHA, Standard Methods for the Detection of
Water and Wastewater (SMWW) and Standard Methods for the Detection of Dairy Products (SMDP).

Granulated Culture Media from Merck reduces significant the

inhalation of hazardous/toxic substances resulting in fewer allergic
responses. The result: less contamination of working tools and
environment. No separation of components and no lump formation
even under humid or warm conditions.
So a rapid and uniform dissolution in water is possible and easier
handling and weighing due to the better flow properties avoiding
the sticking of powder to the flask or container.

tests for checking the presence or absence of the most important indicators of hygiene in
water: E.coli / coliforms and Enterococci.
ReadyCult ensures that the water you consume complies with the valid legal regulations on
drinking water. ReadyCult is very easy to handle (blister packs) and saves a lot of time.
The test is specific for the bacteria to be determined. When testing coliforms, for example, the
test reliably differentiates between E.coli and coliforms. The preparation time is less than
a minute. Your work effort is minimal.
