Compact Dry YMR is a simplified medium to determine the detection and enumeration of yeast and mold in food

Yeast and mold can cause various degrees of food decomposition, and invasion and growth may occur on virtually any type of food. Commodities such as grains, legumes, nuts, and fleshy fruits can be invaded prior to harvesting as well as during storage.

Yeast and mold are distributed widely in decaying plant materials, soil, and air. Their presence on unprocessed plant and animal food products is almost assured by harvesting, handling, distribution, and storage practices used in food industries. Inadequate preservation of these food products can result in spoilage

Mixing and dilution culture method has been widely used to determine the microbial count.

The method is time consuming and complicated, requiring operations such as preparation of hot agar, mixing and dilution uniformly and/ or smearing.

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 applicable to the food industry. Compact Dry allows for easy addition of a sample to the device
