Ultimate Labs Takes Quality Testing to a New Level with Unique Ulti-Pak Service
and ISO 9001 Certification
Innovative Biotech Firm Introduces Secure and Convenient Transportation System to Protect Microbiological Lab Samples from Contamination
SAN DIEGO - August 26, 2008 - Ultimate Labs, (www.ultimatelab.com) a newly ISO 9001 certified microbiological testing and environmental monitoring firm located in the heart of San Diego’s biotech community, introduces the Ulti-Pak, a new system to store and transport lab samples to alleviate contamination. The Ulti-Pak, a fully self-contained system comprised of a branded container and sealed media plates, includes delivery of the ready-to-use containers to customer site and pick-up of samples for automated lab testing, all performed by Ultimate Labs.
“We developed the Ulti-Pak to simplify and secure the lab testing process,” explained Kim Lim, founder, Ultimate Labs. “In our experience, when plate samples need to be sent to a lab, there is a long and inefficient process of finding packing materials, attempting to securely pack the samples, and hoping they would make it to the lab without contamination. Our Ulti-Pak system solves the time and contamination issues through sealed, compact containers that we will pick up in our company vehicles and test in our labs. With quality, professionalism and efficiency as top priorities, we focus on innovation and maintain FDA and ISO regulations to create new products and services to offer the fastest, most accurate test results for our customers.”
The Ulti-Pak cooling containers can store up to 40 55-mm media plates or 20 100-mm media plates, and contain ice packs that cool the contents for up to eight hours, assuring the integrity of the samples.
A member of BIOCOM, the Parenteral Drug Association and the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering, Ultimate Labs recently received its ISO 9001 certification by meeting the International Organization of Standardization’s (ISO) requirements of Quality Management System Standard.
