m-FC agar media plates saves you time and money by having low-priced, sterile, prepared media plates of consistent quality, ready to use that provides you with reporducible and reliable results every time.

Steps for Fecal Coliform Testing

 Step 1. Filter the sample with a sterile cellulosic 0.45 micron filter. 

 Step 2. With flamed (sterile) tweezers, gently place the filter on the modified m-TEC media plates by placing it on one end rolling it to the other edge.

 Step 3. Incubate this plate at 44.5 degrees Celcius for 24 (+/- 2 hours).

 Step 4. That's it. You are done!. Simply count the colonies which are blue in color. 

An added advantage of these prepared media plates is that it incorporates rosolic acid which discourages growth of competing organisms (e.g. E. coli and non-fecal coliform)
