Bertin Instruments experts will present an iPoster at World Microbe Forum 2021. Abstract: Nosocomial infections are an increasing source of concern for the Covid-19 pandemic. Several studies have shown that the transmission of Covid-19 in healthcare settings may amplify local outbreaks, and can worsen the burden on already overstreched resources (1). Understanding the airborne transmission […]

[Webinar] 10 years after the Fukushima Daiichi incident, how could the nuclear industry benefit from high-safety nuclear handling solutions and radiation detection & measurement equipment? On April 15, 2021, from 1:00 to 2:00 PM CET, CNIM’ Sales & Business Development Manager Régine HATTAB and Bertin’s Head of International Sales for Nuclear and Health Physics Manuel […]

Precellys Homogenizers are used to study infected tissues, to obtain high-quality nucleic acids but also a high recovery of viable microorganisms. In addition to Precellys Homogenizers, Precellys Emulsion kit can be used to deliver reproducible, high-quality emulsions. The majority of vaccine studies still rely on the use of animal models. Most often, the efficiency of […]

Francisella tularensis is a bacterium responsible for the zoonotic disease tularemia, classified as a class A potential biological threat agent by the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The Biotoxis qPCR kit has been designed to rapidly detect B. anthracis, Y. pestis, and F. tularensis DNA in various types of samples. With the new […]

Coriolis Compact is able to count viable airborne bacteria and then evaluate the efficiency of air purifier. Air purifying solutions can help decrease the level of airborne microorganisms in the air and reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections. In this application note, researchers have used the Coriolis Compact air sampler to assess the performance of […]
