Innovotech Launches Streak Scientific to Supply Canadian Laboratories with Microbiology Media and Supplies
EDMONTON, Alberta — November 10, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Innovotech Inc., a life sciences services and technology company, has launched Streak Scientific, a new division dedicated to supplying microbiology culture media, reagents, and laboratory supplies to Canadian laboratories. The division operates as part of Innovotech Labs Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary, and aims to address a gap in the Western Canadian market for a local, dependable supplier.
Online ordering for Streak Scientific is now available via its website, www.streakscientific.com. The new division was established in response to client demand for convenient access to a domestic source for both internationally and locally sourced microbiology supplies. The initial catalogue features essential items such as agars, dehydrated media, broths, fluid media, and prepared plates and swabs from established manufacturers like HiMedia and Liofilchem. Products are priced in Canadian dollars and will be shipped from Edmonton, Alberta, eliminating currency conversion complexities and cross-border logistics for Canadian customers.
Historically, Western Canada has been underserved by microbiology media suppliers, often leaving laboratories dependent on large distributors where personalized service and prompt responses can be challenging. Innovotech, having utilized these types of products in its own GMP laboratories for over two decades, possesses a deep understanding of laboratory requirements concerning quality, consistency, and supply chain reliability. The company’s GMP laboratory capabilities also extend to assisting customers with product qualification, including growth promotion testing, which can facilitate the adoption of new media with greater confidence and reduced internal validation efforts.
“Our clients told us they wanted a reliable, local source of microbiology media and supplies, backed by people who understand how these products are used,” said Jodi McDonald, COO of Innovotech. “We have been on the user side of these products for more than 20 years. With Streak Scientific, we are putting that experience, and our GMP laboratory’s ability to qualify products, to work for laboratories across Canada.”
The company anticipates that Streak Scientific will provide a stable and recurring revenue stream, complementing its existing laboratory testing services. By leveraging Innovotech’s established laboratory infrastructure, quality systems, and client relationships, the new business is expected to diversify revenue streams and enhance engagement with laboratories across pharmaceutical, healthcare, food, academic, and industrial sectors.
