Liquid Based Microbiology (LBM) Brochure

A portfolio-wide look inside Copan’s Liquid Based Microbiology brochure, highlighting how liquid-format specimen collection and processing can support improved specimen recovery, multi-purpose testing, standardized handling, and automation-ready microbiology workflows.

• ●
  Liquid Based Microbiology overview: See how converting swab, stool, sputum, and urine specimens into liquid-format samples can help standardize collection, transport, processing, and downstream testing.
• ●
  ESwab^® liquid-based collection and transport: Review how ESwab^® pairs FLOQSwabs^® technology with 1 mL Liquid Amies medium for multi-purpose specimen workflows.
• ●
  FecalSwab^® for enteric workflows: Learn how FecalSwab^® pairs FLOQSwabs^® technology with Cary-Blair medium to simplify stool and rectal sample collection, transport, and processing.
• ●
  SnotBuster™ sputum liquefaction: Explore how SnotBuster™ uses SLSolution™ and Sputum Dipper™ to liquefy sputum specimens for easier, more consistent culture and Gram stain workflows.
• ●
  UriSponge^® for urine specimens: Review urine specimen collection, transport, preservation, sample stability, workflow efficiency, and reduced safety risks with UriSponge^®.
• ●
  Multi-purpose testing support: Liquid-format specimens can support culture, Gram stain, rapid antigen testing, and molecular workflows when compatibility is confirmed for the specific test system.
• ●
  Automation-ready specimen processing: The brochure connects Liquid Based Microbiology to automated specimen processing on WASP^®, helping laboratories reduce manual handling and standardize workflows.
