1 Simple and Effective System for Colony Counting Finally, You Have a Choice! Online Ordering Available ss

2 Compact Dry is a ready-to-use system reducing the time needed to perform microbial testing on food, beverage, meat, cosmetics, and raw materials. Place 1ml of sample onto the plate and incubate. Colonies grow and develop specific colors from chromogenic substrates. This provides for easy organism differentiation and counting. Significant advantages over the competition. Self-Diffusing Media Room Temp Storage and Long Shelf Life Stackable Colonies easy to pick and subculture Write-on Area Easy to Pick Up Removable Lid Compact Dry TC (Total Count) Compact Dry TC is a medium for total viable bacterial count. Growing colonies appear red due to redox indicator tetrazolium salt. Compact Dry TC is AOAC, MicroVal and NordVal approved. 100/pk...TPC100 Compact Dry EC (E. coli and Coliforms) Compact Dry EC contains two kinds of chromogenic enzyme substrates: Magenta-Gal and X-Gluc. E. coli forms blue colonies, Coliforms turn red. The total coliform group count is the sum of both the red and blue colonies. 100/pk... EC [email protected]

3 Compact Dry CF (Coliforms) Compact Dry CF is an easy tool for the detection of coliforms. Coliforms grow with blue/blue green colonies as the recipe contains the chromogenic enzyme substrate X-GAL. The growth of bacteria other than coliforms is mainly inhibited but in case of growth they form colorless colonies. 100/pk...CF100 How to use: Step 1 Remove protective cap from Compact Dry plate. Compact Dry YM (Yeast and Mold) With Compact Dry YM, yeasts and mold can be differentiated by color. The medium contains the chromogenic enzyme substrate X-Phos which turns blue with many yeasts. Molds form fluffy colonies with a characteristic color. 100/pk...YM100 Step 2 Step 3 Compact Dry XSA (Staphylococcus aureus) Compact Dry XSA determines Staphylococcus aureus by means of selective growth of Staphylococcus and differentiation by egg yolk reaction. S. aureus generates blue pigments which result in blue/blue green colonies. 100/pk... XSA100 Coming Soon Compact Dry LS (Listeria Spp.) Compact Dry SL (Salmonella) Compact Dry XBC (Bacillus cereus) Compact Dry ETB (Enterobacteriaceae) Step 4 Drop 1ml of specimen (dilute if necessary) in the middle of dry sheet. Specimen diffuses automatically into the plate, transforming the dry medium to gel. Attach the cap, and incubate for prescribed time. Count the number of colonies on a light box (Cat. no ).
