Description
3M Petrifilm High-Sensitivity Coliform Count Plate is a sample-ready-culture medium system which contains modified Violet Red Bile (VRB) nutrients, cold-water-soluble gelling agent and a tetrazolium indicator that facilitates colony enumeration. By accommodating a 5mL sample, the 3M Petrifilm High-Sensitivity Coliform Count Plate allows for the detection of low levels of coliforms in 24 hours. This allows a 1-coliform-per gram sensitivity if a 1:5 dilution of product is made. A 2-coliform-per-gram sensitivity is achieved if a 1:10 dilution is used. Whether testing milk, ice cream, cheese or other food product, business big and small can cut back on costs using the 3M Petrifilm Plates. These plates reduce overall testing costs and allow producers to easily conform to higher sensitivity standards. 3M Petrifilm High-Sensitivity Coliform Count Plates may be especially well-suited for use in facilities producing dairy products, where regulation and strict internal quality standards demand a high-sensitivity test that can deliver results quickly and accurately. The interpretation of Coliform colonies on 3M Petrifilm HSCC plates varies by method depending on the reference method followed.
