Petrifilm LAB Lactic Acid Bacteria Count

True Anaerobic Results for Lactic Acid Bacterial Counts

Self-contained anaerobic environment enabled by oxygen scavenging technology and oxygen barrier films
Does not require gas packs, chambers or CO2 incubators
Results in 48 hours
All-in-one method for differentiation of gas producing colonies without durham tubes or extra steps

A time-saving, sample-ready plate designed to determine total lactic acid bacteria populations in food and environmental samples.

Neogen Petrifilm™ Lactic Acid Bacteria offers a better means to test for lactic acid bacteria in food products, raw materials and the production environment without the hassle of traditional agar methods. These ready-to-use plates simplify the testing process and gives accurate results in less time, helping reduce waste, minimse recalls and protects reputations in the marketplace.

True anaerobic results using standard aerobic incubation conditions. The self-contained anaerobic environment in this plate enhances the recovery of lactic acid bacteria, providing fast, accurate results for effective control of product quality and shelf life.

After 48 hours incubation, count all red colonies. The Neogen Petrifilm™ Lactic acid Bacteria Count Plate is able to differentiate between homofermetative (non-gas forming) and heterofermentative (gas-producing) colonies.
