Total Aerobic Bacteria

25 g

Neogen® Petrifilm® Rapid Aerobic Count Plate

Culture Media

Method Description

This comprehensive aerobic bacterial count provides detection across all concentration ranges, from very low to very high bacterial loads without predetermined limits. This approach is valuable when the expected microbial load is unknown or when samples may vary widely in contamination levels. The full range testing provides maximum flexibility and ensures accurate results regardless of actual bacterial concentrations.

Additional information

This assay is used to determine the number of aerobic mesophilic (growth at body temperatures i.e. 35® C) bacteria contained in a food product or ingredient. No information about potential foodborne pathogens can be inferred from aerobic plate counts. Some foods (raw meats, raw commodities) may naturally contain high levels of aerobic mesophilic bacteria.
