3M™ Petrifilm™ Aerobic Count Plates
The 3M Petrifilm Aerobic Count Plate provides total aerobic count in as little as 48 hours. A red indicator dye in the plate colors all colonies red for better contrast and easier colony counting. The red colonies are also easily distinguished from opaque food particles that can cause confusion when using other plating methods.
In addition, 3M Petrifilm Aerobic Count Plates can be used to aerobically or anaerobically enumerate lactic acid bacteria in food and environmental samples.
Three easy steps offer fast, easy-to-interpret results:
1) Inoculate - 3M™ Petrifilm™ Plates are easy to inoculate. Lift the top film and add sample
2) Incubate - The space saving design maximizes incubator space.
3) Enumerate - A red indicator dye in the plate colors all colonies red. This Petrifilm Plate can also be read in 4 seconds using the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Plate Reader.
- Aerobic Count results as soon as 48 hours.
- Plates are sample-ready, eliminating the time-consuming, cumbersome step of preparing media/agar dishes.
- Can be used with the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Plate Reader for consistent, fast, automated reading and recording of results.
- This plate has been awarded Official Methods of Analysis (OMA) #986.33 for Milk (OMA) #989.10 for Dairy products (OMA) #990.12 for Food NF VALIDATION certificate: 3M 01/01-09/89 by AFNOR Certification for All human food products, pet food, industrial environmental samples.
- Food processors and Contract labs worldwide trust 3M Petrifilm Plates to provide accurate, efficient, consistent results.
