Ames MPF ™ Kits (Liquid) Ships With Dry Ice
The Ames MPF Liquid Kits are modified versions of the Ames test using liquid culture instead of agar plates. The assays are based on the fluctuation method cited in the OECD Guideline 471 but use 384-well microtiter plates and have a colorimetric read-out. The great advantage of this format is the lower amount of sample needed and much easier handling. The Ames MPF assays use TA98 and/or TA100, TA1535, TA1537. All these tester strains are recommended in the current, formal test guidelines.
Ames MPF ™ Kits (Semi-Solid) Ships at Room Temperature
The Ames MPF Semi-Solid assays are modified versions of the Ames test using semi-solid(ships at room temperature) culture instead of agar plates. The assays are based on the fluctuation method cited in the OECD Guideline 471 but use 384-well microtiter plates and have a colorimetric read-out. The great advantage of this format is the lower amount of sample needed and much easier handling. The Ames MPF assays use TA98 and/or TA100, TA1535, TA1537. All these tester strains are recommended in the current, formal test guidelines.

Analytical Services
Xenometrix has at its Allschwil facility a fully equipped laboratory for performing Ames MPF and Ames II Mutagenicity Assays for customers. Chemicals will be accepted to perform the required assays, interpret data and produce detailed reports. The staff is fully trained in all aspects of the liquid Ames microplate assays, making for a very efficient and cost-effective process. Depending upon answers to a client's questionnaire, detailed reports are likely to be completed within 7 days. However, data can be communicated immediately upon assay completion (3 days).
The Ames II ™ |
 |
|
Mutagenicity Assay, in liquid micro plate format, is a modification of the traditional Ames Plate Incorporation Assay and the Mini-Ames test. The Ames II test reduces hands-on time and also uses much less of the test compound than the regular Ames or Mini-Ames tests.
- Microplate format
- Ready-to-use reagents
- Less hands-on time
- Significantly lower amount of test compound
- Automatable for high throughput screening
- Six fold less plastic ware, reduced disposal costs

Petrifilm ™ Products
Petrifilm™ Aqua Plates are sample-ready media that replace conventional agar, petri dishes, media pads and disposable filter funnels used in the microbial testing of water.
Each plate contains a water-soluble gelling agent, nutrients and indicators in a dry, shelf-stable format. We offer four 3M Petrifilm Aqua Plates to cover your unique testing needs:
- Heterotrophic Count
- Coliform Count
- Enterobacteriaceae Count
- Yeast & Mold Count
