TTC/ROSE Dipslides

COMPLETE TTC & ROSE BENGAL MICROBIOLOGICAL TESTING - These TTC/ROSE dipslides combine Tetrazolium Chloride Nutrient Agar for total viable count testing with Rose Bengal agar for mould, yeast and fungal detection. Rose Bengal dye prevents overgrowth of moulds and yeasts for clearer colony counting, while TTC highlights aerobic bacteria as distinct red colonies for rapid, reliable contamination assessment. IDEAL FOR POOLS, SPAS & INDUSTRIAL WATER SYSTEMS - Designed for broad contamination monitoring in domestic and professional settings, including swimming pools, spas, water treatment and storage facilities. Commercial applications include industrial water systems, HVAC systems, environmental and surface testing, food industry environments and fuel storage tanks. CLEAR RESULTS WITH COLOUR-CODED MEDIA DESIGN - The colour-coded dual-medium layout offers straightforward interpretation for home users and professionals. TTC Nutrient Agar reveals total viable bacteria as red spots, while Rose Bengal ensures controlled fungal growth for accurate mould and yeast counts. This design supports fast, repeatable and dependable assessment of water quality contamination. CHLORAMPHENICOL-ENRICHED FOR HIGHER ACCURACY - Each dipslide includes a Chloramphenicol antibiotic additive to minimise bacterial interference during fungal and yeast enumeration, improving test accuracy and consistency. The simple dip, contact or swab method enables hygienic handling and makes the testing process accessible without specialist laboratory equipment. HASSLE-FREE TESTING & SIMPLE HANDLING - These TTC/ROSE dipslides make testing easy, remove the paddle without touching the agar, dip it into the sample and drain the excess before sealing it back in the tube. Incubate at 30°C for 48 hours and compare with the provided chart. Store upright at 10 - 15°C to prevent condensation or gel dehydration for consistent results.
