To date, MBEC Assay® testing has been featured in 100s of peer-reviewed publications. The MBEC Assay® method is now approved by ASTM (E2799-17).
MBEC Assay® testing provides the following:
- Qualitative data package (MIC, MBC, MBEC)
- Quantitative data package (log reduction)
- Quorum Sensing Inhibitor testing
- Synergy testing
- MBEC Assay® lids can be coated with
- poly-L-lysine,
- hydroxyapatite,
- cellulose,
- titanium dioxide
- and custom coatings to fit your needs
