The 3M™ Petrifilm™ Coliform Count (CC) Plate is a sample-ready-culture medium system which contains modified Violet Red Bile (VRB) nutrients, a cold-water-soluble gelling agent, and a tetrazolium indicator that facilitates colony enumeration. 3M Petrifilm CC Plates are used for the enumerationof coliforms in the food and beverage industries.

 

These plates provide total coliform count information with confirmed results in just 24 hours. By eliminating subsequent confirmation steps required with most traditional reference methods, the 3M Petrifilm Coliform Count Plates can help increase productivity and reduce overall lab costs.

Three Easy Steps Offer Fast, Easy-to-Interpret Results:*
1) Inoculate - 3M Petrifilm Coliform Count Plates are easy to inoculate. Lift the top film and add sample.

2) Incubate - The space saving design minimizes incubator space requirements.

3) Interpret** - Count the colonies. Confirmed coliforms are red colonies with associated gas bubbles. Results are fast and accurate
