Biokar COMPASS® CC Agar
Biokar COMPASS® CC Agar is a chromogenic medium for the rapid enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliforms in water using membrane filtration. Within just 24 ± 3 hours, it distinguishes E. coli (blue-violet colonies) from other coliforms (pink colonies) without the need for further biochemical confirmation. Validated to ISO 16140-2 and compliant with ISO 9308-1, this medium is ideal for water testing laboratories and environmental monitoring applications.
