Specializing in Biomolecular Testing Kits for Toxicity, Mutagenicity, and Genotoxicity.
EBPI is a biotechnology-based company specializing in the manufacture and custom application of simple, rapid, and cost effective methods for detection and monitoring of toxic, mutagenic and genotoxic materials. In addition to being used for evaluation of existing and new chemicals, the kits have found application in assessing environmental pollution risks in drinking water, wastewater, soil and air. We are a research and development-focused laboratory and manufacturing facility continually developing new testing procedures and easy-to-use testing kits for use by research laboratories around the world.
A microplate version of the traditional "pour plate" Ames Test.
The Muta-ChromoPlateTM Kit is sensitive and user friendly. It is commonly used to detect mutagenic potential of individual chemicals or mixtures of chemicals in water, wastewater, sediment, air aqueous extracts, new chemicals, foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and any other material that can be put into aqueous solution or micro-suspension, such that it can be taken up by the test strain. |

| 
A microplate genotoxicity bioassay based on the primary response of a genetically engineered bacteria to determine DNA genotoxicity damage.
The SOS-ChromoTestTM Kit can be used to evaluate the presence of genotoxic agents in water, wastewater, sediment, air, chemicals, food, cosmetics, and for any material that can be put into aqueous solution or micro-suspension such that it can be taken up by the test strain.
| 
A microplate toxicity bioassay to determine acute or chronic toxicity in water, effluents, and other liquids.
The Toxi-ChromoTestTM Kits endpoint is either partial or complete enzyme inhibition related to the toxic stress the test organism is exposed to. It’s endpoint is a simple color change that can be determined visually or using a plate reader at a wavelength of 610nm. |
|
|
A pad toxicity bioassay to determine acute toxicity of materials found in sediments, sludge, soils, or other solid waste materials.
The Toxi-ChromoPadTM does not rely on the extraction of chemicals from the substrate and thus is a direct measure of biological exposure potential. It is based upon the same test organism and response as the aqueous based Toxi-ChromoTest. |

MicroBioTests Inc located in Gent Belgium, is the developer and manufacturer of the TOXKIT line of products. These kits (like EBPI line of toxicity testing kits) are used for the detection and quantification of the toxicity of chemicals and or solid and liquid wastes which pollute aquatic and terrestrial environments. All product lines have the unique characteristics that they are culture and maintenance free bioassays, which do not require stock culturing of the test organisms. MicroBioTests Inc have developed these kits with ISO, EPA, and ASPM standards in mind. The full Toxkit line of products can be found under the MicroBioTests link on either main menu.
A complete list of components of these kits can be found under the "MicroBioTest - Component" link on the key concepts menu. Please contact EBPI for further information regarding any of the toxicity testing kit manufactured or distributed by EBPI.
