3M™ Petrifilm™ Staph Express Count Plate provides confirmed Staphylococcus aureus results within 22 hours. 3M™ Petrifilm™ Staph Express Count Plates streamline your staph testing and ensures fast, confirmed results in a few steps. Distinctive red-violet colonies make interpretation very easy – quickly, effectively and accurately.
Results in as few as 22 hours with three easy steps:
1) Inoculate - easy to inoculate, lift the top film and add sample 2) Incubate - designed to maximize incubator space 3) Enumerate - distinctive colonies appear in as few as 22 hours. A built-in grid makes counting colonies fast and easy
If you encounter high background flora in your staph testing, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ Staph Express Disk can be used to identify S. aureus from all suspect colonies.
Improved Productivity/Reduced Costs 3M Petrifilm Staph Express Count Plate provides performance equivalent to the U.S. F.D.A. Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) three-plate Baird-Parker agar and coagulase method. The 3M Petrifilm Plate technology allows lab technicians to complete more tests in less time when compared to conventional methods. As a result, it increases productivity and reduces labor costs – allowing effective management of labor budgets and overall lab costs.
