MUD/SF Microplates for Enterococcus Testing, transparent #3553783

Use transparent MUD/SF Microplates for Enterococcus Testing for miniaturized testing using Most Probable Number (MPN) estimation of fecal contamination in all types of water sample including bathing, waste, and surface water. Hydrolysis of 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucoside (MUD) by the enzyme, β-D- glucosidase, present in Enterococci, is detected by UV fluorescence.

Features and Benefits

• Quantitative detection of Enterococci in all types of water sample including those with high levels of suspended matter
• Method requires no growth in broth or on agar plates
• Microplate format permits dilutions and replicates of a sample on the same plate
• Simple and economical detection with long wavelength UV lamps
• Use with Fluoplate™2 Software (3591790) for analysis and full traceability reports
