CompactDry™  is a ready-to-use test method which helps to reduce the time needed to perform microbial testing. Therefore, it allows maximum productivity by increasing efficiency. The plates can be used to test raw materials as well as finished products like food, beverage, meat, cosmetic or other samples. The Compact Dry plates can also be used as a contact plate for difficult areas using the Compact Dry swab.

CompactDry™ EC is a medium for E.coli and coliforms. The medium contains two kinds of chromogenic enzyme substrates: Magenta-Gal and X-Gluc. E.coli forms blue colonies. The total coliform group count is the sum of both the red and blue colonies.

Regression line data from Compact Dry EC method plotted versus the conventional VRBA method (violet red bile agar) shows a good correlation per 50 food samples for the population of coliforms. Compact Dry EC is AOAC approved.
