About Our pseudomonas + macconkey 3 dipslides (box of 10)

This dipslide features two different agars (prepared culture medium). It has Pseudomonas Agar on one side and MacConkey 3 Agar on the other side. This dipslide will test for pseudomonas on one side and coliforms on the other side.

Pseudomonas Agar - This agar detects pseudomonas species.

MacConkey 3 Agar - This agar detects coliforms. Coliforms are an indicator organism for hygiene levels and this agar is utilised in a variety of testing applications.

If your sample contains bacteria, colonies will grow on the dipslide. To interpret your dipslide results, you would count the colonies and compare with the chart provided.
