The 3M Petrifilm RYM Plate method allows the user to obtain accurate results within 48-60 h in the matrixes evaluated for the presence of yeast and mold when incubated at 25 ± 1 °C or 28 ± 1 °C. Interpretation and colony counting was straight forward and the 3M Petrifilm RYM Plate method required no additional agar or Petri dishes, creating an easier workflow by cutting down on supplies, sample plating time, and most noticeably, occupying less space in the incubator.
