About
Public Health England awarded a contract to Don Whitley Scientific Limited for the provision of spiral platers for its Food, Water and Environmental (FW&E) Microbiology Services.
The spiral plater system saves laboratory resources by reducing staff time and eliminating repetitive strain issues associated with pipetting and spreading small volumes across agar plates.
The initial purchase covers three FW&E Microbiology Services laboratories, each inoculating approximately 2,500 plates per month per instrument.
The contract includes further instruments if required and a fully comprehensive extended warranty.
The contract value is £101,000.
