Merck Millipore acquires rights for Biotest microbiology products

Monday, 16 July, 2012

Merck Millipore now has exclusive rights to sell Biotest microbiology products in Australia and New Zealand.

In 2011, Merck Millipore acquired German company Biotest, an innovative industrial microbiology company with capabilities in ready-to-use media and hygiene monitoring. Its products are targeted at the pharmaceutical and food and beverage segments.

Biotest’s microbiology products, previously marketed by either of their two trading companies, Heipha and Hycon, are now exclusively available through Merck Millipore. Technical support for the products is also offered.
