Heterotrophs are a group of microorganisms, which include bacteria, yeasts and fungi, which use organic carbon as a sole source of energy. Following guidelines set by the WHO, treated drinking water should be free from contaminating microorganisms. Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) represents the total microbial count in water, including bacteria, yeast, and mold. Compact Dry™ AQ is a ready-to-use selective dehydrated media plate for the detection and enumeration of heterotrophic bacteria in drinking water and ultra-pure water. It is composed of a nutrient-poor culture medium for bacteria adapted to nutrient-poor conditions. The chromogenic substrate results in red heterotrophic bacteria colonies after incubation, allowing simplified visualization and enumeration.
