Dip-slides for testing for total germ count and fungal cultures universally applicable
Is your metall working fluid overly contaminated with bacteria or funghi?
If the bad smell waters your eyes, it is typically to late for countermeasures - disinfection, because the fluid is already heavily degraded through activity of bacteria or funghi. Then all that remains is to clean, disinfect and refill the machine.
Dips Slides serve as an easy and quick test for hygiene control. They can be used as a dip, swab or immersion indicator to check for bacteria, yeasts and fungi. For the determination of the total number of germs, yeasts and fungi with the two-sided hygiene test. For easy self-performing hygiene control of microbiological monitoring of liquids, powders or surfaces. Due to the two chamber system it is possible to detect aerobic bacteria separately as light yellow caso-agar and on the second pink Benagal Agar for fungi and yeasts. Dip Slides are an inexpensive and fast alternative to expensive and time-consuming laboratory tests.
The application is simple after sampling at a constant room temperature of above 20 degrees or incubation in the incubator at 27-30 degrees.
The field of application ranges from internal and cost-effective monitoring in the health sector, areas and instruments to water cooling circuits in metal processing. Dip Slides are suitable for microbiological monitoring of liquids, powders and surfaces, such as:
Nursing and health care
Food production facilities and kitchens
Cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry
Paints and adhesives
Water mixtures, emulsions Suspensions
Personal care products, body lotion, lotion and cleansing products
Drinks with milk Juice and liquid food Soups
Raw materials and dry food
Production surfaces, containers and transport containers
Immersion test specimen Side 1: TSA (bacteria, GKZ) - Side 2: Bengal red (fungi,yeasts)
* with neutralization additive to remove disinfectant residue; can also be used as a blotter for inspecting surface hygiene thanks to the folding culture medium holder.
