COMPLEX TESTING MADE SIMPLE

Mycoplasma Testing

With minimal hands-on time and fast time-to-result, BIOFIRE® Mycoplasma system makes it easy to quickly test at any point in the manufacturing process. Now, testing can be done by anyone, anywhere, at any time.

Easy In-Process Testing

Our fully automated BIOFIRE® Mycoplasma system consists of two components—the FilmArray® instrument and the single-use “molecular lab in a pouch” disposable. With just these two items, you have everything you need for fast, accurate mycoplasma testing for use along the entire production chain. To simplify the process further, we offer validation services designed to meet regulatory requirements—from documentation to comprehensive on-site support.
