Petrifilm Rapid Aerobic Count Plates

Click2Contact

Aerobic count bacteria are present in a variety of food matrices and serve as indicators for food spoilage. Getting accurate aerobic bacteria counts in raw materials, finished product and production environments is critical to making time-sensitive decisions that impact process control, cleaning decisions and, ultimately, product quality and safety.

3M Petrifilm Rapid Aerobic Count Plates are a fast, accurate and easy way to expedite critical business and product-release decisions. Proven as reliable as the SMA plate method, the plates help agar users avoid costly retesting and delayed results due to interpretation issues caused by spreader colonies.

Faster results and less labour mean users have more time to monitor their process, ensuring tighter process control and a higher quality product.

A sample-ready, culture medium system, the plates contain nutrients, a cold water-soluble gelling agent and a dual-sensing indicator technology that facilitate colony enumeration in 24 hours for most food matrices.

Thermo Fisher Scientific microbiology solutions aim to meet all microbiological food safety and quality needs, from culture media and diagnostic kits, to quality control organisms.
