🌍 It's World Tuberculosis Day

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world’s deadliest infectious diseases, affecting more than 10 million people and causing 1.25 million deaths each year. While recent global numbers show decline, TB continues to heavily impact vulnerable populations worldwide.

Early detection and reliable laboratory testing are essential in controlling its spread. Hardy Diagnostics supports laboratories with a comprehensive range of TB solutions, including Middlebrook and Lowenstein-Jensen media, specimen decontamination reagents, and acid-fast stains.

This World Agriculture Day, we are thinking about what happens before the food leaves the processor and arrives at your table.

The 2025–2026 regulatory landscape has made one thing clear: early detection is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Here's what QA teams on the front lines are reaching for right now: 👇

📋🍽️CompactDry™ Listeria spp. (LS)
No prep. Fast results. When Listeria shut down kitchens across 19 states, labs needed a testing workflow they could trust. This is it. https://hubs.la/Q047yL8K0

💧🐂🥛 Farm Water · Irrigation · Beef · Dairy
HardyCHROM™ ECC - E. coli & Coliforms
One chromogenic plate. Two critical indicators. This plate enables comprehensive monitoring of agricultural hygiene and the color differentiation makes results unmistakable. https://hubs.la/Q047yJbt0

🐔 🥚Poultry Drag Swab + PDX-SIB Media
Salmonella in poultry environments is an FSIS enforcement priority-not a theoretical risk. This pair gives poultry producers and processors a comprehensive environmental detection system, purpose-built for the conditions that matter most https://hubs.la/Q047yBHT0 and https://hubs.la/Q047yKxv0

Agriculture feeds the world.
Hardy Diagnostics helps protect it.

💊 Tomorrow we remember a turning point in medical history.

On March 14, 1942, Anne Miller became the first American patient successfully treated with penicillin. It was a moment that transformed modern medicine. Penicillin was first discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928, then purified and commercialized by Florey and Chain in 1942, which had a major impact on treating wounded allied soldiers during WWII.

Facing life-threatening septicemia, she responded dramatically to what was then a groundbreaking therapy. Her recovery marked the beginning of the antibiotic era and forever changed how we treat infectious diseases.

Today, as we navigate antimicrobial resistance and evolving pathogens, it’s powerful to reflect on how one breakthrough reshaped healthcare, and why continued innovation still matters.
