General Description

Plate Count Agar Kit contains
ReadyPlate^™PC Agar plates of 55mm diameter is a selective culture medium. The pH of the medium is in the optimum range of 6.8-7.2 for the growth of bacteria. The media is relatively rich in its nutrients and does not contain any inhibitors or indicators. The enzymatic digest of casein serves as a nitrogen source with high levels of free amino acids followed by yeast extract, which is a rich source of vitamins. The carbon source for the growth of bacteria is served by glucose thereby providing efficient growth of bacteria.
EZ-Pak Filters are ready-to-use, sterile filters made of Mixed cellulose esters (MCE) with 0.45 μm pore size, white, gridded and 50mm diameter. These filters possess high recoveries.
