ENat Transport tube 2ml 12x80 with screw cap, Copan
Copan eNat® for nucleic acid collection and preservation.Specifically developed for molecular biology applications: formulation of eNat® contains a detergent and guarantees optimal stabilization of the sample (not suitable for research requiring recovery and cultivation of life organisms). Extra safety: inactivates infectious pathogens, eliminating risk of exposure. Validated with numerous PCR Platforms: nucleic acids within sample must be extracted and purified before addition to the Master Mix. MLS is the exclusive LBM (Liquid Based Microbiology) dealer in the Benelux.

Swab Amies charcoal, with plastic bar, Copan
We have the honour and the satisfaction to be the first to launch a perfect swab with medium in a new generation packaging! With the film-film (plastic-plastic) packaging, that consists of a laminate of 5 different sorts of plastic, we distance ourselves definitively of other swabs that are present on the market for years, that is to say the plastic-paper packaging (peel-pack).Some benefits: (For more details or comparative studies, please contact us.)Fully waterproof, contamination is excluded and the sterility is guaranteed.Hermetical packaging: the air is sucked out of the packaging, and replaced by a small amount of nitrogen gas (N2) in the assembly’s final stadium. This has a very stabilizing influence on the transport medium. Because of this, oxydation is nearly impossible, as long as the packaging is not opened, and the expiry date is extended considerably by the complete barrier with oxygen.This unique hermetical packaging also stops each form of evaporation and/or dehydration of the gel or of the liquid transport medium. There is a visible garantuee and “First use” proof when the sterility seal is broken through because a white colouring of the seal occurs from the moment there is contact with the outside surrounding area. More environment-friendly: whereas before the packaging consisted of 2 components, that is to say paper and plastic, now it consists of 100% plastic (just 1 component). Moreover, also overpackaging s taken into consideration. All swabs with medium are packed by 50 in a VI-PAK foil packaging: an aluminium blister packaging in which the air, that was sucked out, was replaced by nitrogen gas. In this manner, the quality of the unused swab is guaranteed even longer! Because of the N2-barrier, the oxygen (O2) cannot oxidize with the medium and because of the dark light impermeable film, the UV-light cannot influence the gel. Important: all gel swabs are available for both aerobic and anaerobic microbes!

Swab Stuart liquid, plastic applicator, white cap, Copan
We have the honour and the satisfaction to be the first to launch a perfect swab with medium in a new generation packaging! With the film-film (plastic-plastic) packaging, that consists of a laminate of 5 different sorts of plastic, we distance ourselves definitively of other swabs that are present on the market for years, that is to say the plastic-paper packaging (peel-pack).Important: all liquid media swabs are only available for aerobic microbes!For your information:What differs of a liquid media swab?The use, comfort and packaging are the same as those of a regular gel swab. The difference is positioned at the swab’s bottom. By shoving the cotton bud in its case, it is pushed against a polyurethane sponge This sponge is permeated with 1 ml liquid transport medium and serves as moisturizing reservoir. By pushing the cotton top against the sponge the liquid medium is directly mixed with the sample by capillarity. Benefits:No ampoule needs to be broken, nor does the membrane need to be penetrated.No longer dried out samples.The swab has direct contact with the permeated sponge.

Amnio Test
The Amnio Test is a useful swab system for “amniotic” liquid detection for pregnant women (Amniorrhesis). The presence of this liquid in the vagina resolutely points at a teared membrane. The test interpretation is fast and easy. By means of the enclosed colour card, the increased pH-value can be interpreted directly.
