Easygel is a replacement product for agar that is more convenient to use and transport. Easygel is a pectin-gel method which comes as a sterile 2-part test unit consisting of a bottle of liquid medium and a petri dish that is pretreated with a special formulation. When the bottle of liquid medium is poured in to the pretreated petri dish, the combination causes the medium to gel. Complete gelling takes around 40 minutes, after which a petri dish is ready to use. There are several formulations of Easygel, ranging from the common Total Count (Standard Plate Count) formulation to the patented Coliscan formulation. <br>
