FOR USE IN A PROTECTED AREA
- The Count-Tact™ irradiated range was specifically designed for use in clean areas. The
plates are packaged in packs of 10 in triple Cellophane wrapping receiving an irradiation
dose between 8 and 12 kGray.
- The validation demonstrated that an 8 kGray dose guarantees the absence of bacterial
growth after artificial contamination. A 12 kGray dose does not modify the medium's
performance: stability, fertility, selectivity, neutralization.
- Count-Tact™ irradiated medium has the same performance as Count-Tact™ non-irradiated
medium.
