How do AccuMast Detection Plates Work?

AccuMast Mastitis Detection Plates are designed for easy application and interpretation.

These test kits come in packs of four petri dishes, split into three sections. Each section detects three different categories of bacteria:

• Gram negative

• Streptococcus

• Staphylococcus.

First, you collect your sample in a sterile container. Turn the container upside down to mix the sample thoroughly. Dip your sterile swab into the container.

Apply milk samples directly onto each section of the plate with the swab. Then incubate the plate for 16 hours at 37°C.

After incubation, to identify the cause of clinical mastitis, you examine the three sections of the culture plate to see what colour of culture is growing on the plate.

There are clear instructions to advise you on what each colour result means.

Once you have this information, you can make an informed decision about mastitis treatment.

On-farm Mastitis Testing

The user-friendly design of AccuMast Mastitis Detection Plates makes them ideal for on-farm testing.

Mastitis is a costly disease in cattle. It can have a devastating impact on milk yields.

With AccuMast tests, you have an efficient tool for use on the farm that will help you protect your herd, your produce and your livelihood from the damaging effects of mastitis.
