Same Results Only Faster

IntuBio’s patented technology mimics the traditional cultivation method. 

However, the same results are provided only in hours rather than days by applying rapid growth based microbial testing.

By providing rapid microbial analysis IntuBio aims to revolutionize the way we approach microbiological monitoring. Our solutions are based on sophisticated optical scanning, providing label-free methods with minimal sample preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Setting up IntuGrow is straightforward. The scanning system is designed to easily fit into your current lab setup, and if you need any help, IntuBio provides great support to get you up and run quickly.

The high-resolution scanning platform enables the advanced algorithm required for early detection of colony formation. The algorithm allows for quantification of colonies when they are only 8 µm in diameter, compared to 300+ µm with the naked eye.

Yes, IntuGrow’s can analyze a broad range of sample types, including active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), complex products, water, swabs, and more.

The filtration principle of IntuGrow allows for analysis on a broad range of sample volumes (1-200 ml) making sure volume requirements are met.

For filterable samples the detection limit is 1 CFU/volume and down to 20 CFU/ml for unfilterable samples.

Yes, it does! No more manual counting of colonies. IntuGrow automatically does the counting for you, saving you time and reducing human error.

IntuGrow is non-destructive, meaning you can keep your samples for further testing and identification after the initial results come in.

Yes, IntuGrow software is 21 CFR part 11 compliant

Not really! IntuGrow is designed to be user-friendly and only basic laboratory skills are required. On top of that you will get all the training and support you need to get started.

Data is updated hourly for early warnings and can be exported in CSV format for further analysis.

IntuGrow uses either the proprietary IntuGrow filter or Mini-Dishes for analysis. Other than that only standard titer plates and culture medium is required. Don’t worry, IntuBio provides everything you need to keep things running smoothly.

The time to detect microbial growth using IntuGrow is as early as 3 hours.

Yes! To correctly quantify molds the algorithms track the hyphae growth.

By speeding up detection, automating processes, and reducing the need for manual labor, IntuGrow helps cut costs in the long run.

Yes, IntuBio provides complete installation and operational qualification (IQ/OQ) services to meet regulatory requirements and ensure proper system functionality.
