Hardy Diagnostics launches the latest in rapid total aerobic count media.

SANTA MARIA, Calif., Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Hardy Diagnostics proudly announces the launch of CompactDry TCR, a ready-to-use dehydrated culture medium plate for the detection and enumeration of microorganisms that provides total aerobic plate counts in as little as 24 hours. This self-diffusing plate is AOAC PTM-certified and is the easiest way to perform plate counts, requiring no spreading or stamping. Simply remove the lid, dispense 1mL of sample onto the center of the plate, place the lid, and incubate. Dye indicators in the medium allow colonies to be easily and reliably read from center to edge. Plates are securely stackable, and the innovative design eliminates the possibility of sample leakage - saving time, increasing safety, and allowing for unobstructed growth and ease of colony picking.

Aerobic Plate Counts provide insight into the efficacy of a food processor's sanitation protocols and the overall efficacy of their HACCP program. With its rapid results and ease of use, CompactDry TCR will be an indispensable tool to facilities and labs throughout the food industry.

Hardy Diagnostics provides additional workflow solutions to speed the process of serial dilutions and plate-counting, including the Wizard CompactDry reader, LabRobot Dilugent Shaker, and much more.
