Easy Plate is a dehydrated, ready-to-use culture media that simplifies microbiological testing while delivering consistent and accurate results. Unlike traditional agar methods, Easy Plate eliminates the need for media pouring and drying - significantly reducing labor time and minimizing the risk of contamination. Its compact format helps labs save valuable storage and incubator space. Easy Plate is available in multiple parameters, including Aerobic Count, Coliform, E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Yeast & Mold, and Enterobacteriaceae. The media is certified by AOAC, MicroVal, and NordVal, ensuring reliable performance in line with international standards (Easy Plate EB-Enterobacteriaceae is currently under validation).
One of Easy Plate’s key advantages is its environmentally friendly packaging. The transparent film uses minimal plastic, reducing laboratory waste and supporting sustainability goals. The design also features a surrounding ring that prevents sample spillage - helpful for avoiding sample waste and reducing the risk of contaminating clean benches. Colonies are easily identifiable visually, eliminating the need for interpretation of gas formation, which simplifies the reading process and reduces operator training requirements.
To further streamline the workflow, the Colony Counting System for Easy Plate is available as a complimentary tool. This compact, automated device is pre-calibrated for Easy Plate formats and delivers fast, accurate digital colony counts via a user-friendly and easy-to-edit interface under admin mode. Together, Easy Plate and the colony counter offer a complete, efficient solution - ideal for laboratories aiming to improve productivity, reduce human error, and standardize microbial testing processes.
