Easy and possible to test anywhere. Microbial testing with 'MC-Media Pad'.
You don't need to have high expertise! You can easily get tested anywhere.
The "MC-Media Pad" is a microbial detection sheet medium that allows for inspections without the need for expensive equipment. The "MC-Media Pad" (formerly known as Sanita-kun) is a simplified microbial detection medium that serves as an alternative to agar media. It consists of a sheet-like medium layered with a medium for detecting target microorganisms and a water-soluble polymer non-woven fabric. This enables rapid detection as there is no need to prepare agar media. There is no need for equipment or facilities required for medium preparation, and advanced techniques for inspection are not necessary. 【Inspection Method】 Inspections can be easily and simply conducted as follows: ■ Sample Inspection You can test the microbial load in food. ■ Direct Stamp Inspection Since the surface of the medium is made of non-woven fabric, you can directly stamp it with your hands or from the production line to investigate the contamination level of the production line. ■ Settled Bacteria Inspection It is possible to test for settled bacteria, which is an indicator for managing the working environment. You can conduct the test simply by removing the film and leaving it exposed. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us. ↓ Free samples are currently available!
