Chromogenic UTI medium (Clear) formulation contains two chromogenic substrates which are cleaved by the ß-galactosidase and ß-glucosidase enzymes produced by E. coli, Enterococcus species, and coliforms. These specific enzyme reactions cleave the chromogens giving a range of diagnostic colors.
• Easy-to-read:the ß-galactosidase activity ofE. coliandS. saprophyticusresults in pink colonies and the ß-glucosidase activity of enterococci produces blue colonies; the activity of both enzymes on coliforms gives purple colonies. Tryptophan deaminase activity produces a brown halo around colonies ofProteus,Morganella, andProvidenciaspecies. Most other organisms exhibit their natural pigmentation
• Easier multiple sample testing:clear background makes multiple sample testing easier Not all products are available for sale in all territories. Please inquire. Remel™ and Oxoid™ products are now part of the Thermo Scientific brand.
