Description
The Neogen® Petrifilm® Rapid Yeast and Mold Count Plate method is faster and provides results in as little as 48 hours of incubation time, vs. the traditional agar method that requires a five day incubation period. Yeast and molds can grow in a wide range of conditions in raw materials, finished products and production environments, making them difficult to control. This plate features a new indicator technology that makes colonies easier to interpret.
