Easy Plate EB

Easy Plate EB is a microbiological culture device consisting of an impermeable slide, a dry medium prepared on the slide, and a transparent cover over the medium. The Easy Plate EB method is intended to indicate the level of E. Coli in food products as an alternative to microbiological methods (AOAC Official Method 966.23 and Chapter 3 of the U.S. Food and Drug Officials' Manual of Bacteriological Analysis).
It is compact, easy to use, and reduces the overall amount of waste produced during testing. The Easy Plate EB method has been certified by AOAC Research Institute Performance Tested Methods SM (041302) for raw beef, raw ground beef, roast beef, raw ground pork, Chinese barbecue pork, bacon, ham, cooked pork sausage, frankfurter, raw chicken, raw ground chicken, lettuce, blueberries, raw shrimp, raw salmon, raw tuna, pasteurized milk, natural cheese, and dry pet food.
During the preparation of the plates for incubation, no additional tools are required. This is due to the hydrophobic ring around the culture area, which helps in the automatic distribution of the sample in the culture area.
