Compact Dry™ BC Ready to Use Medium For Bacillus Cereus Testing, With AOAC Certification, 100 Plates

Compact Dry BC is used detect and determine the bacterial number in food products and the food environment, and to monitor the degree of cleanliness and sanitary safety.

Treated drinking water should be free from contaminating microorganisms. Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) represents the total microbial count in water, including bacteria, yeast and mold.

Traditional plate methods have been widely used to determine microbial counts, but these methods are time-consuming and require media preparation.

To save operator time and make it possible for anyone to perform the microbial count test without difficulty, Compact Dry was developed based on a new concept and technology available to the food industry and uses a simplified medium to determine B. cereus by the combination of selective agents and chromogenic substrates
