Description
Compact Dry ETC is a sterile, ready-to-use culture medium device for microbiological testing. Each pack contains 40 units in blister packaging, supporting hygiene monitoring and the testing of liquids in food, environmental and quality-control laboratories. The Compact Dry format is designed for convenient plating and enumeration without extensive media preparation, helping laboratories maintain consistent colony-count workflows. Manufactured by Shimadzu Diagnostics and positioned in the CompactDry™ range, these plates integrate into standard incubation and reading procedures used for routine hygiene programmes. Sterility of the units underpins reliable microbial work under controlled laboratory conditions. The blister pack of 40 pieces provides a defined stock level suited to scheduled monitoring and liquid testing schedules. Compact Dry ETC plates reduce preparation time while delivering the practical handling expected of specialised ready-to-use microbiological media. They are intended for laboratories seeking a streamlined alternative to conventional poured plates for selected hygiene and liquid-sample applications.
