ChromoGel Urine Agar is a chromogenic medium used for the cultivation and
isolation of pathogen bactreria from urine samples

o Very good productivity obtained with selected and standardized peptones.
o Optimized agar concentration to inhibit the swarming of Proteus spp.
o Enhanced visual differentiation of the colonies due to strong chromatic reactions and to opaque contrasting background.
o Specific enzymatic reactions for presumptive identification of both gram positive and gram negative pathogens.

The medium use for isolation and identification of Streptococcus B group
bacteria (Opaque background)

The Group B Streptococci (GBS), also known under the name of Streptococcus agalactiae, are the cause of numerous infections in adults but mostly an important cause of serious neonatal infections, occuring in the three first weeks of life. Studies indicate that approximately 12-27 % of pregnant women are colonised by GBS. (WHO, Infectious diseases, Group B Streptococcus). Detecting vaginal (and in some countries also rectal) colonisation by GBS in pregnant women is the most effective strategy to prevent infection transmission during baby delivery.

Worldwide, official guidelines recommend prenatal screening of GBS in the last month of pregnancy. In GBS-carrying women, this screening allows determining the need of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxy, which has been proved effective in preventing the infections occuring in the first week of life (known as early-onset GBS infections).

ChromoGel™ Salmonella RB Agar is a selective medium used for the
isolation and identification of Salmonella from food and animal feed,
water and other materials.

The agar is chromogenic, providing two chromogenic substrates – propylene glycol and X-Gal ((5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoyl- β-D-galactopyranoside).
Certain Salmonella species act on the propylene glycol producing acid which causes the pH indicator in the media to change color, and pinkish-red or crimson colonies appear. Additionally, other members of the family Enterobacteriaceae which are positive for the enzyme β-D-galactosidase cleave the substrate X-Gal and this results in the production of blue-green colonies.
Salmonella species that are positive for the β-D-galactosidase enzyme and can produce acid from propylene glycol appear as purple-violet colonies, while species that are capable of neither appear as yellow or colorless colonies.

Application

  • The detection of Salmonella in foodstuff, water, animal feed
  • The differential diagnosis of Salmonella species in various samples

For detection and isolation of Staphylococci by membrane filter technique.

The media can be used for the hemolysis test on presumed colonies of Bacillus cereus, according to the standard ISO 21871.

BCP Dextrose Tryptone Agar (also known as BCP Glucose agar) is used to enumerate mesophilic and thermophilic aerobic bacterial spores (especially Bacillus stearothermophilus, responsible for flat sour) in raw materials and in ingredients used in canning non-acid products (pH > 4,5). It is also used in surface samples and canning process water.

Bacillus cereus Agar is used for the detection and enumeration of spores and vegetative cells of Bacillus cereus in food products.
The typical composition corresponds to the MYP agar (mannitol, egg yolk, polymyxin agar) described in the standards NF EN ISO 7932 and NF EN ISO 21871.

Tryptone Sulfite Cycloserine Agar was described by Harmon for the selective isolation and enumeration of Clostridium perfringens in water and food samples. The medium was recommended for the enumeration of sulfur-reducing anaerobes from foods of animal origin.

Lactose-Sulfite Broth is a confirmation medium allowing the selective detection of both the vegetative cells and spores of Clostridium perfringens in food products and biological samples of animal origin, without the usual confirmatory tests.

Bryant and Burkey Broth with Resazurin (modified by Bergère) is used to enumerate the spores of lactate fermenting Clostridium in milk and dairy products. In particular, it is used to detect Clostridium tyrobutyricum, responsible for the late blowing of cheeses such as gruyère, emmental, gouda, edam, cheddar or parmesan. The phenomenon arises from a high number of spores in the milk used to prepare the cheese. This number depends above all on the type of food given to the animals, since the main source of contamination is silage. 

Reinforced Clostridial Agar is a non-selective medium used for the isolation and enumeration of Clostridia, other anaerobic bacteria and lactobacilli in biological samples, dairy products, and other food products.

Bromocresol Purple (BCP) Lactose Agar is a non-selective medium, used for the differentiation of Enterobacteriaceae. It is used for the confirmation of coliforms in the context of the standard T90-425, for the bacteriological examination of containers and recipients used in water bottling.

The typical composition of the broth responds to that defined in the normalized method of presumptive Escherichia coli enumeration.

Laurylsulfate-Tryptose broth is a selective enrichment media used for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliforms in water and food products. 
The medium was formulated by Malmann and Darby who showed, in 1941, that sodium laurylsulfate was the best selective agent among a number of surfactants and did not inhibit the growth of coliform bacteria. Levine later showed that the medium reduced the number of false positives by inhibiting the growth of sporulated gas-producing bacteria.

Lactose Broth is used principally as a liquid enrichment media for the detection of Escherichia coli in cosmetic products, if neutralizers or dispersal agents are not necessary. It is also adapted to the culture of all Gram negative bacteria. Armed with a Durham tube, it can detect the fermentation of lactose.

Principles and uses
Endo Agar Base is a differential and moderately selective culture medium for the detection and confirmation of coliforms and other enteric microorganisms in waters, milk, dairy and other food products.
It uses fuchsin to differentiate between positive lactose-fermenting and lactose non-fermenting bacteria. Acetaldehyde production by lactose-fermenting organisms such as E. coli produce characteristic red colonies and a red surrounding area, marked by its reaction with Sodium sulphite in the presence of fuchsin. Lactose non-fermenters form colorless, transparent colonies.
Peptone provides nitrogen, vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for growth. Lactose is the fermentable carbohydrate providing carbon and energy. Dipotassium phosphate acts as a buffer system. Bacteriological agar is the solidifying agent.
