Alternative to the 3M Petrifilm™ 6400 (Aerobic Count Plates)
CompactDry™ is a ready-to-use dehydrated culture media system that reduces the time needed to perform everyday microbial testing on food, plants, meat, cosmetics, raw materials, and more. Simply add 1ml of the prepared sample to the center of the plate. The sample will self-defuse and rehydrate media fully on its own. No stamping or spreading is needed!
CompactDry™TCR is a method recommended for the determination of total aerobic bacterial counts. Plates are AOAC PTM 082201 validated and is measurable after only 24 hours of incubation.
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!
