Features

Safe and Stable Design

Shatterproof plastic tubes with skirted, flat-bottom designs stand securely on the benchtop to help minimize spills.

Convenient Storage

Room-temperature-stable broths help simplify inventory management and reduce cold-storage demand.

Compliance and Standardization

Ready-to-use broths help reduce preparation steps and support consistent, standardized workflows.

Automation Ready Tubes

Designed for compatibility with automated microbiology platforms like Copan’s WASP®, enrichment and selective broths help reduce manual handling and streamline specimen processing.

NEW: LBM® CABroth™

Candida auris is an emerging multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen that can be difficult to detect due to low fungal burden in colonized patients and competing microbial flora in clinical and surveillance specimens.

 

LBM® CABroth™ is a selective enrichment broth formulated to promote the growth of Candida auris while helping inhibit other Candida species and commensal bacteria. Designed for use before culture or compatible molecular testing, LBM® CABroth™ helps laboratories strengthen targeted C. auris detection workflows that support surveillance and infection prevention efforts.

 

LBM® CABroth™ helps laboratories:

  • Selectively enrich Candida auris
  • Inhibit other Candida and commensal bacteria
  • Support enrichment in 48 hours of incubation at 35–40 °C
  • Use enriched specimens for subculture on either sabouraud dextrose agar
    or chromogenic agar media
  • Use enriched specimens with compatible molecular detection workflows
  • Support automated processing with WASP® and WASPLab®*

Enrichment Broths Designed for Modern Microbiology Workflows

Enrichment is an important step in many microbiology workflows, helping increase target organism load before downstream testing. Copan LBM® Enrichment and Selective Broths support these workflows with ready-to-use tubes designed to reduce hands-on preparation and fit easily into routine laboratory operations.

 

From fastidious organisms and anaerobes to enteric pathogens, Group B Streptococcus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida auris, the product line gives laboratories flexible broth options for targeted recovery, surveillance, and downstream culture or compatible molecular analysis across a broad range of healthcare-associated infection applications.

Designed to Fit Automated Workflows

Copan LBM® Enrichment and Selective Broths are designed to align with automated microbiology workflows, helping laboratories reduce repetitive manual steps and support more standardized specimen processing.

 

LBM® CABroth™ is also designed for processing with WASP® and WASPLab® when used with the required broth module, allowing laboratories building Candida auris surveillance and healthcare-associated infection screening workflows to extend automation into selective enrichment.

Ready-to-Use Tubes That Help Reduce Hands-On Preparation

Traditional enrichment workflows may require broth preparation, aliquoting, storage planning, and additional manual handling. Copan LBM® Enrichment and Selective Broths are supplied in ready-to-use tube formats to help simplify implementation, reduce preparation time, and support consistency across users and shifts. The shatterproof, automation-ready tubes are stable at room temperature, helping laboratories keep broth inventory accessible while reducing cold-storage demand.

One Product Line, Multiple Enrichment Needs

The Copan LBM® Enrichment and Selective Broths line includes media for a broad range of clinical microbiology workflows, including CABroth™ for Candida auris, BHI Broth™ for fastidious bacteria, Thiol Broth™ for anaerobic bacteria and fastidious anaerobes, TSB Salt Enrichment Broth™ for Staphylococcus aureus workflows, Selenite Broth™ for Salmonella and Shigella, LIM Enrichment Broth™ for Group B Streptococcus, and GN Broth™ for enteric Gram-negative organisms.
