Soleris® Next Generation
The Next Generation of Rapid Microbial Testing System
The Soleris® Next Generation (NG) System delivers rapid, automated microbial testing for food, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and personal care products. Built on proven optical technology and optimized workflows, Soleris NG expands testing capabilities while reducing turnaround times, helping laboratories make faster, more confident quality decisions.
Why Choose Soleris?
Simple Protocol, Easy Workflow
Soleris NG uses optical detection technology that integrates straightforward methodology with classic microbiology principles. Our ready-to-use culture media vials make it easy: just inoculate, load into the instrument, and it allows the user to monitor results in real time.
Reduced Time to Results
Compared to traditional culture-based methods, Soleris NG can deliver results in as little as 14–18 hours for many assays. Faster release decisions can extend product shelf life, improve market responsiveness, and increase overall product value.
Improved Efficiency & Rapid Response
Earlier alerts for microbial contamination enable immediate corrective actions, reducing waste, protecting brand integrity, and increasing throughput.
Lower Operational Costs
No media preparation, no additional reagents, our prefilled vials are ready to use. Reduced labor and faster decisions can lower both direct and indirect quality control costs.
Non-Destructive Testing
Following analysis, the tested sample remains available for confirmatory testing or further investigation, supporting compliance and traceability.
The Soleris System consists of our next generation instrument, ready-to-use culture media vials, and system software that is designed to provide results in less time when compared with traditional methods.

Testing Applications
Food and Nutraceutical Testing
The Soleris NG system has been developed to test product quality and safety in all areas of food production, including nutraceutical testing. Our extensive range of prepared media vials means Soleris is an ideal solution for many testing applications across different industries, from beverage and dairy, to dietary supplements.
Cosmetic Testing
Our range of adaptable media vials, coupled with our PET (Preservative Efficacy Testing) software function, means the Soleris NG system also offers rapid and reliable results for PET within the cosmetics industry. By utilising our Presence/Absence and semi-quantitative protocols, it can also be used for end product cosmetic testing.
Validations and Certifications
The Soleris NG system has been rigorously tested and validated across its testing applications, gaining the following certifications:
AOAC and MicroVal Validation
Our Soleris vials have earned multiple AOAC validations and MicroVal certifications covering a variety of food matrices. This combination allows the Soleris system to provide proven testing solutions from raw materials to finished goods, and many steps in-between.
United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) Validation
Using USP methodology, the Soleris NG system is validated to test numerous sample types, including nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and cannabis products.
