Petrifilm AC Total Aerobic Count

FOR THE ENUMERATION OF TOTAL AEROBIC COUNT

Neogen Petrifilm™ Aerobic Count Plate is a time-saving, sample-ready plate designed to determine total aerobic bacteria populations. It offers an ideal tool to enumerate total aerobic bacteria on environmental surfaces, ingredients or in food products. Each Petrifilm™ Aerobic Count Plate contains a water-soluble gelling agent, nutrients and indicator – all components required for microbial growth with no agar preparation required.

Aerobic count results in as little as 48hrs
A red dye indicator in the plate colours the colonies for easy interpretation
Consistent & easy to use for less chance of error when compared to other methods
Can be used with the Neogen Petrifilm™ Plate Reader Advanced for consistent, fast automated reading and recording of results
Ideal for finished product testing, in process testing & environmental monitoring
Offers increased productivity, reliability and a reduction in operational costs versus traditional methods of microbial testing
Certificate of analysis available

The Neogen Petrifilm™ range is easy to use in any laboratory with 3 simple steps –

Reliable and consistent colony counts are facilitated by the inclusion of a built-in grid on each plate. A red dye indicator also included in each plate causes any viable bacteria to grow red in colour and helps distinguish the organisms from opaque food particles. All red colonies growing on a plate regardless of their size and colour intensity should be counted.
