LifeSign Easicult TTC (10 Tests)

The LifeSign Easicult TTC system provides 10 complete, self-contained tests per box. This amount allows for cost-effective, on-site monitoring of bacterial contamination in industrial environments.

Yes, a physician’s licensing is required to purchase this product. It is not intended for at-home use.

The LifeSign Easicult TTC package contains the components required for 10 complete diagnostic tests used in industrial microbial monitoring. Each box includes:

• 10 Test Slides: These slides are coated on both surfaces with Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) agar, which is essential for detecting and quantifying elevated bacterial counts.
• 10 Labels
• Instructions for Use

The LifeSign Easicult TTC is specifically designed for monitoring microbial contamination in industrial environments, primarily by detecting and quantifying the elevation of bacterial counts in fluids.This testing capability provides several benefits for preventative maintenance and quality control:

• Targeted Detection: The slides are coated on both sides with Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) agar, which facilitates the growth of most common bacteria.
• Risk Mitigation: Early detection helps prevent costly issues like equipment breakdowns associated with corrosion or contamination.
• Quality Assurance: It supports the maintenance of high quality in finished products through contamination screening.
• Dual Use: The slides can also be used as a simple and convenient transport media for collected samples.

Yes, the LifeSign Easicult TTC slides are coated on both sides with specialized Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) agar.

This crucial medium supports the growth of most common types of bacteria, enabling users to effectively identify and quantify elevated bacterial loads when monitoring microbial contamination in industrial environments.

The LifeSign Easicult TTC slides require specific conditions to ensure accurate bacterial growth when monitoring industrial fluids.

• Incubation Duration: 24 hours
• Incubation Temperature: 35–37° C

Maintaining this precise temperature range and duration is crucial for detecting elevated bacterial counts using the TTC agar medium. It is recommended that you use proper incubation equipment capable of sustaining this required temperature range.

By detecting early signs of corrosion or contamination through microbial monitoring, the LifeSign Easicult TTC can help prevent equipment breakdowns in industrial settings.

Yes, the LifeSign Easicult TTC is specifically designed for monitoring microbial contamination in industrial environments.

The suggested combination product for enhanced microbial monitoring is the LifeSign Easicult COMBI (#4060). Using both the Easicult TTC (for bacterial contamination) and the Easicult COMBI together provides a more comprehensive view of microbial growth in industrial fluids.

The LifeSign Easicult TTC system provides significant cost savings primarily through preventative action and efficient testing:

• Prevents Equipment Breakdown: It detects elevated bacterial counts that often cause corrosion and contamination in industrial fluids. This early detection allows for timely intervention, effectively preventing expensive equipment breakdowns and operational downtime.
• Cost-Effective On-Site Testing: The system facilitates convenient and economical on-site microbial testing. This simplified, three-step procedure (dip, incubate, read) reduces the time, labor, and expense typically associated with external testing facilities (though testing must still be conducted in a laboratory facility).
• Ensures Product Quality: Proactively monitoring and controlling contamination risks helps ensure the consistent quality of finished industrial products, avoiding costly defects or rework.
