BACTERIA COUNT TEST (10 PCS)

BT2 general purpose microbiological dip slides are used for rapid, on board monitoring of microbial contamination in water systems. They can be used to test waste waters and engine cooling waters. The slide is coated with TTC media which supports the growth of most common bacteria.

Description

Product information

General purpose medium double-sided with triphenyltetrazolium chloride: red colouration when reacting with living cells facilitates counting. The dipslide allows convenient enumeration of aerobic microorganisms (TVC). The dipslide is prepared with nutrient TTC agar on both sides and is used for general purpose cultivation of organisms which can be obtained from surfaces, fluids or the air. The additive in the nutrient agar reacts with enzymes produced in aerobic respiration to produce a colour change from white to red, allowing easy enumeration Finally, the media is produced to meet ISO 11133

Test Parameter: Bacteria Supplied as a box of 10pcs
