Bacillus cereus Count Plate

The FSTest Bacillus cereus Count Plate is a pre-prepared, single-use culture medium designed for dairy, meat, starchy foods, and water samples. This ready-to-use plate eliminates the need for complex agar preparation, significantly reducing testing time and labor costs. With a chromogenic indicator, Bacillus cereus colonies appear as blue-green dots, allowing for clear, easy-to-interpret results.

Why Choose the FSTest Bacillus cereus Count Plate?

✔ Ready-to-Use – No media preparation required, just inoculate and incubate.

✔ Faster Results – Obtain reliable Bacillus cereus counts in just 15-24 hours.

✔ Enhanced Accuracy – Chromogenic detection makes colony identification effortless.

✔ Easy Sample Preparation – Streamlined workflow reduces manual workload.

✔ Cost-Effective – Reduces lab costs, minimizes equipment needs, and saves space.

✔ High Sensitivity & Specificity – Optimized for dairy, meat, starchy foods, desserts, and water testing.

Applications:

Ideal for food safety testing in:

✔ Dairy products (Bacillus cereus in milk, dairy contamination testing)

✔ Meat & poultry (Bacillus cereus in meat products)

✔ Starchy foods & desserts (microbial testing in starchy foods)

✔ Water samples (water quality testing for Bacillus)

Simple 3-Step Testing Process:

1️⃣ Sample Preparation – Mix 25g/mL of the sample with 225mL of sterile diluent, then create serial dilutions.

2️⃣ Inoculation & Incubation – Add 1mL of the sample to the count plate, cover, and incubate at 36±1°C for 15-24 hours.

3️⃣ Interpretation – Count blue-green colonies (30-300 range) and calculate the Bacillus cereus concentration.

Compared to Traditional Agar Methods:

✅ No media preparation – Ready-to-use, saving time and labor.

✅ Faster results – 15-24 hours vs. 48+ hours with conventional agar.

✅ Easy interpretation – Blue-green colonies for clear, accurate counting.

✅ Compact & stackable – Saves incubator space and reduces clutter.
