Specialist microbiology

Our Specialist Microbiology department is a dedicated team of technical experts able to provide a variety of bespoke microbiology services as part of a genuine one-stop-shop solution. The team carries out a wide range of bespoke trials including challenge tests, validation projects, and investigative microbiology studies.

If the project you have in mind doesn’t fit neatly into an existing ALS service or it requires that extra level of attention and care, then we encourage you to contact us so we can discuss your needs and exactly how we can best help you move forward.
