| Features and Benefits: | • Proprietary chromogenic media and patented plating device with isolation wells combine to produce easily counted results and eliminate problems typically associated with mold overgrowth. • While other methods require duplicate plating of samples, SimPlate has been validated to provide equivalent results with just a single plate. Combined with the reduction of necessary sample dilutions, made possible by the broad counting range of the plate (1-738), SimPlate reduces the number of tests required for each sample, helping to reduce overall testing costs. |
| General description: | SimPlate for Yeast and Mold (YM) method is used for the detection and quantification of yeast and mold in foods. The medium/sample mixture is dispensed into a SimPlate device and incubated. The total yeast and mold count is determined by counting the fluorescent wells and referring to the SimPlate Conversion table. The SimPlate device is packaged separately. |
