Profile: Gibson Laboratories, LLC manufactures a wide range of high quality microbiological products used by clinical, industrial, research and academic laboratories. Our inocu-pellets are used in performance testing of culture media, stains, microbial ID kits, maintenance of stock cultures and in the evaluation of bacteriological procedures. It is easy to use. They are lyophilized and not just dried suspensions like other products. ID-M cat test kit is used for the presumptive identification of Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis. The ID-urease kit is used for the detection of urease activity by microorganisms. The ID-AE is indicated for the presumptive identification of group A streptococci & enterococci. Coagulase vials are used to detect coagulase enzyme in staphylococci. Oxidase swabs test kit is indicated for the detection of oxidase activity in organisms such as Pseudomonas & & Neisseria species.

15 Products/Services (Click for related suppliers)

• Culture Media Quality Control Kit (FDA Code: JTR / 866.2480)

A quality control kit for culture media is a device that consists of paper discs (or other suitable materials), each impregnated with a specified, freeze-dried, viable microorganism, intended for medical purposes to determine if a given culture medium is able to support the growth of that microorganism. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms and also provides epidemiological information on these diseases.

• General Nutrient Broth Culture Media (FDA Code: JSC / 866.2350)

A microbiological assay culture medium is a device that consists primarily of liquid or solid biological materials intended for medical purposes to cultivate selected test microorganisms in order to measure by microbiological procedures the concentration in a patient's serum of certain substances, such as amino acids, antimicrobial agents, and vitamins. The concentration of these substances is measured by their ability to promote or inhibit the growth of the test organism in the innoculated medium. Test results aid in the diagnosis of disease resulting from either deficient or excessive amounts of these substances in a patient's serum. Tests results may also be used to monitor the effects of the administration of certain antimicrobial drugs.

• Infectious Disease Testing Viral Quality Control kits

• Microbiological Stain (FDA Code: JTS / 864.1850)

Dye and chemical solution stains for medical purposes are mixtures of synthetic or natural dyes or nondye chemicals in solutions used in staining cells and tissues for diagnostic histopathology, cytopathology, or hematology.

• Microbiology Kit

• Mueller Hinton Agar Broth Culture Media (FDA Code: JTZ / 866.1700)

A culture medium for antimicrobial susceptibility tests is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of any medium capable of supporting the growth of many of the bacterial pathogens that are subject to antimicrobial susceptibility tests. The medium should be free of components known to be antagonistic to the common agents for which susceptibility tests are performed in the treatment of disease.

• Non-Selective and Differential Culture Media (FDA Code: JSH / 866.2320)

A differential culture medium is a device that consists primarily of liquid biological materials intended for medical purposes to cultivate and identify different types of pathogenic microorganisms. The identification of these microorganisms is accomplished by the addition of a specific biochemical component(s) to the medium. Microorganisms are identified by a visible change (e.g., a color change) in a specific biochemical component(s) which indicates that specific metabolic reactions have occurred. Test results aid in the diagnosis of disease and also provide epidemiological information on diseases caused by these microorganisms.

• Non-Selective and Non-Differential Culture Media (FDA Code: JSG / 866.2300)

A multipurpose culture medium is a device that consists primarily of liquid or solid biological materials intended for medical purposes for the cultivation and identification of several types of pathogenic microorganisms without the need of additional nutritional supplements. Test results aid in the diagnosis of disease and also provide epidemiological information on diseases caused by these microorganisms.

• Pathogenic Neisseria Culture Media (FDA Code: JTY / 866.2410)

A culture medium for pathogenicNeisseria spp. is a device that consists primarily of liquid or solid biological materials used to cultivate and identify pathogenicNeisseria spp. The identification aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by bacteria belonging to the genusNeisseria, such as epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis, other meningococcal disease, and gonorrhea, and also provides epidemiological information on these microorganisms.

• Quality Control Kits (FDA Code: JTR / 866.2480)

• Selective and Differential Culture Media (FDA Code: JSI / 866.2360)

A selective culture medium is a device that consists primarily of liquid or solid biological materials intended for medical purposes to cultivate and identify certain pathogenic microorganisms. The device contains one or more components that suppress the growth of certain microorganisms while either promoting or not affecting the growth of other microorganisms. The device aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms and also provides epidemiological information on these diseases.

• Selective and Non-Differential Culture Media (FDA Code: JSJ / 866.2360)

• Selective Broth Culture Media (FDA Code: JSD / 866.2360)

• Single Biochemical Test Culture Media (FDA Code: JSF / 866.2320)

• Water-microbiology kit
