Blender Bags and Sample Handling Bags for Microbiology Laboratories

Blender Bags and Sample Handling Bags for Microbiology Laboratories

Laboratory homogeniser bags are essential consumables for preparing microbiological samples. These bags ensure efficient, hygienic sample collection, dilution, homogenisation, filtration and pipetting while minimising cross-contamination and enabling faster results.

Blender bags in various designs—including filter, filter-free, pre-dosed culture medium and sterile sampling versions—allow the appropriate solution to be selected for every laboratory application, whether for food, environmental or pharmaceutical testing.

Blender bags with filters

• Side-filter bags for pipetting, pouring or rapid closure (BagFilter Roll, Pipet, S, Pull-Up, XF, etc.)
• Special PCR-optimised bags with extra-fine filtration for small volumes
• Full-surface filter bags (BagPage), including microporous, non-woven and extra-resistant versions

The different filter types allow each bag to be precisely matched to the specific test method, sample type and laboratory workflow.

Blender bags without filters

Simple, flexible homogenisation for all sample types

• BagLight PolySilk – transparent and filter-free for fast, flexible sample homogenisation
• BagLight MultiLayer – a multilayer bag for samples that are more difficult to homogenise, providing excellent performance without a filter

With these bags, pipetting or further filtration can be performed as a separate step, and they are suitable for all sample types.

Bags with culture media

With sterile medium for rapid microbiological testing

Available instaBAG types

instaBAG BPW

• Bag optimised for pre-enrichment
• Particularly recommended for general microbiological pre-enrichment, for example before pathogen detection.

instaBAG Fraser ½

• For selective enrichment
• A solution designed for Listeria detection and selective pre-enrichment steps

instaBAG MILK

• For specialised food samples
• Particularly suitable for microbiological testing of milk- and chocolate-based products

Sterile sampling bags

Simple sample collection and safe transport

Sterile sampling bags are ideal for collecting, labelling and transporting samples before they reach the laboratory.

RollBags are sterile bags with a tie and adhesive closure. They can be used flexibly for both liquid and solid samples and comply with food-industry and microbiological testing protocols.

The easy closure, writable surface and sterile packaging ensure that samples arrive at the laboratory intact.

Autoclave deodorisers and sterilisation accessories

A hygienic working environment and unpleasant odour control

Managing unpleasant odours from laboratory autoclaves and bags is often challenging. Autoclave deodorisers provide a practical solution during and after sterilisation, helping maintain hygienic laboratory operations.
