India Biodegradable Tableware Packaging MarketNew Legionella testing selective agar plates launched by AnalytiChem
AnalytiChem is a manufacturer of specialised laboratory equipment, reagents and consumables, has launched a new addition to its high-quality Redipor microbiological prepared media portfolio. It offers a suite of ready-to-use, selective culture media options.
It covers the full culture pathway required for ISO-aligned testing, ensuring reliable recovery, quality control, and compliance with international standards. This makes it ideal for use in laboratories and organisations responsible for water safety and regulatory compliance, including environmental, public-health, and industrial monitoring laboratories, as well as water utilities.
According to Towards Packaging, the India Biodegradable Tableware Packaging Market is projected to experience significant growth, with estimates suggesting the market size will increase from USD 2.82 billion in 2026 to approximately USD 4.97 billion by 2035, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5% from 2026 to 2035. Growth is driven by the increasing environmental concern, government regulation, and shifting consumer preferences toward sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Fueled by a nationwide ban on the production, import, stocking, distribution, sale, and usage of single-use plastic items.
Redipor Legionella
It is responsible for water safety and regulatory compliance, including environmental, public-health, and industrial monitoring laboratories, as well as water utilities. It is designed for parallel plating on non-selective and selective media to maximise recovery across diverse environmental sample types.
Plate options include BCYE (Buffered Charcoal Yeast Extract), GVPC (GlycineVancomycin Polymyxin Cycloheximide), and MWY (Modified Wadowsky-Yee) agar variants [PdB1.1][GP1.2]. Each Redipor medium in the new range serves a distinct role within the Legionella culture workflow: non-selective recovery (BCYE), selective isolation (GVPC, MWY), and confirmation via cysteine dependency.
AnalytiChem experts can advise on the right combination by application, from testing clinical respiratory specimens to differing environmental water or heavily contaminated environmental samples, such as biofilms and cooling tower sludge.
Segment Director Life Science & Lab Essentials, AnalytiChem, Nico van Stallen said Culture remains the internationally accepted reference method for the detection, enumeration, and confirmation of Legionella in water systems, forming the basis of regulatory compliance and outbreak investigation.
