Description
SCT DipslidesOur SCT dipslides are specifically designed for use in the food industry. They test for coliform bacteria, including most of the significant causative bacteria of food poisoning and use MacConkey agar No. 3 as a coliform specific medium that suppresses all non coliform bacteria. Coliform bacteria are the most significant causative bacteria for food poisoning. The second side uses plate count agar to give a general count of viable aerobic bacteria.
Our SCT dipslides are specifically designed for use in the food industry. They test for coliform bacteria, including most of the significant causative bacteria of food poisoning and use MacConkey agar No.3 as a coliform specific medium that suppresses all non-coliform bacteria.
Coliform bacteria are the most significant causative bacteria for food poisoning.
The second side uses plate count agar to give a general count of viable aerobic bacteria. This includes additional TTC in the plate count medium, allowing colonies to show up as red spots for easy counting.
Features:
- Pack of 10
- Dual-sided dipslides
- Easy to use
- Colonies show up as red spots for easy reading
Important Note
All dipslides require a period of time in a specialist incubator. You can view our dipslide incubator range here.
Please see the Datasheet section below for details of the incubation period required for these BTM2 dipslides.
Additional information
Inside each 10 pack dipslide box you will find a helpful leaflet. The leaflet includes:
- Product care and storage instructions
- Guidance on interpreting the results
- A visual guide (comparison chart) to help you interpret the results
- Instructions on how to safely dispose of your dipslides once used
10 x adhesive labels are also included to help you keep track of each sample point (sample/date/time/ref/source)
Weight: (10 PK) 0.3 kg
Storage: Store in a cool and dry place (optimum 8-15 degrees C). Use before the expiry date on the box. Do not use slides if there is any sign of growth before opening.
Please note a small amount of water may collect in the bottom of the tube, this is condensate from the agar and does not affect the performance of the dipslide agar.
How to use our Dipslides
|
Using our dip slides is easy! No prior training or experience is required to be able to use the dipslides and read the results effectively. Each dip slide has an easy-grip handle and a flexible paddle for ease of use and for surface testing |
Testing Fluids
|
Remove the dip slide from its tube, and without touching the agar gel, immerse the gel part of the slide in the fluid to be tested for about 10 seconds, or hold the slide under running liquid, or spray so that both sides are covered. Allow excess fluid to drain for a few seconds. |
Testing Surfaces
|
Remove the dip slide from its transparent container. Do not touch the culture agar gel. Holding the slide by the tab (and the bottom of the slide if required), press one side of the agar against the surface under test, the ribbed neck above the agar will bend to allow full contact. |
Interpretation
|
After 48 hrs in the incubator, compare the dipslide to the chart provided in the box, reading the result from the closest matching image. |
Disposal
|
Used slides should be incinerated, autoclaved or soaked in disinfectant for several hours before disposal. |
