Unit Size: Each
Escherichia coli O157 is recognized as a cause of hemorrhagic colitis, an illness characterized by bloody diarrhoea and severe abdominal pain, and hemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS)^1,2,3,4,5, and as such, is a significant human pathogen.Cefixime Rhamnose Sorbitol MacConkey Agar Base provides a selective base for differentiation of Escherichia coli O157.
• Selective: the addition of Cefixime reduces the level of competing flora, particularlyProteus, that often account for large numbers of non-sorbitol fermenting colonies
• Easy-to-read:Escherichia coliO157 do not usually ferment sorbitol or rhamnose, so appear as straw-colored colonies, while the sorbitol negativeEscherichia colithat ferment rhamnose appear as pink colonies.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
