Plate Count Agar/MacConkey 3 Agar Dipslide

Price: $69.00


Description

The Scigiene E-coli dipslide has two tests, one on either side of the dipslide. One side of the dipslide tests for total count bacteria which gives you an idea of the 'general health' of your sample. The other side of the dipslide tests for coliforms. If colonies fluoresce on the coliforms side of the dipslide when exposed to UV fluorescent lighting, these fluorescent colonies can be presumptively identified as E.coli.

If your test sample contains microbiological contamination, colonies will grow on the dipslide. You would then compare the number of colonies with the chart provided to assess the level of microbes present in the sample.

These dipslides come in a pack size of 10 slides per box. The slide has a flexible paddle and is within a shatterproof container.

Features:

  • Flexible Paddle - Each dipslide features a virtually unbreakable and flexible paddle allowing for even, full surface testing.
  • Easy "Run Off" Design - Due to the design of the dipslide, fluids will drain off quickly during testing.
  • Recessed Handle - Each slide has a handle built into the lid that is recessed to help keep your fingers dry during testing.
  • Side Indicator - One side of the slide will have a circle indicator so you know which side was used for testing which type of contaminant.
  • Dual Sided - Each dipslide is dual sided to allow multiple contamination testing with one test.
  • Thick Reliable Agar - Approx. 4mm
