Medlab Middle East
For the expected, unexpected and everything in between
Medlab is the key event to unite Middle East healthcare and medical laboratory community, and is the right place to discover innovative products, trending technology, and build infinite networking opportunities. This year we’ll be there in person: discover our FLOQ technology – which revolutionized sample collection – and see first-hand our Liquid-Based Microbiology media, today the gold standard in microbiological sampling. Moreover, it will be a great chance to learn more about UniVerse®, our solution designed to bring efficiency, standardization, and safety in the service of thousands of molecular biology laboratories worldwide.
