CompactDryTM is a ready-to-use system that reduces the time needed to perform microbial testing on food, plants, meat, cosmetics, raw materials and more!
CompactDry™EC is a ready-to-use test method recommended for the determination of total aerobic bacterial counts!
Compact Dry™ EC contains two kinds of chromogenic enzyme substrates: Magenta-Gal and X-Gluc. E. coli forms blue colonies, coliforms turn pink-purple. The total coliform group count is the sum of both the pink-purple and blue colonies!
The benefits are easy to spot:
- Sturdy frame, stackable packaging!
- Self-diffusing media, no spreader needed!
- Ability to subculture without damage to colonies!
- Stored at room temperature vs the competitor products with storage at temperatures less than or equal to 8°C!
- No leakage!
- Easy to label!
- Each cassette comes with 4 connected plates that can be easily snapped apart to support a variety of dilution scenarios!
