Description
General description
Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris CECT® 7094 Vitroids™ are Certified Microorganisms Standards (Certified Microbiological Reference Materials) which can be used as quantitative and qualitative control organisms. They contain colony forming units (CFUs) in the range of 1,000-10,000 CFU per disc. The technology allows long-term conservation and renders the organisms resistant to temperature changes. They are intended to be used as daily internal quality control organisms. These microorganisms are certified according to ISO/IEC 17025 and produced under reproducible conditions compliant with ISO 17034 using authenticated strains from CECT®. These ready-to-use microbiological controls minimize the need to maintain control strains in the test laboratory and guarantee an authenticated control culture for every quality control test. Vitroids™ are derived from a traceable culture obtained freeze-dried from CECT®.
