The microbiology laboratories at Don Whitley Scientific commenced operation in the late 1980s, have been offering contract research and sample analysis since 1991 and have been GLP compliant since 1994. The type of work that we can accommodate encompasses the whole spectrum of microbiology, from routine analysis/quality control to substantial research and development programmes for major multinational pharmaceutical companies.
Our team of microbiologists, with experience in industrial, pharmaceutical and clinical areas, operates within our purpose-built laboratories. Reflecting the company’s product range, we have the skills and equipment to culture diverse aerobic, anaerobic and microaerophilic bacteria. We specialize in cultivating fastidious organisms such as Mycoplasma and Brachyspira species, and conducting antimicrobial susceptibility tests with these organisms.
