Carbapenem resistance screening! HardyCHROM™ CRE (Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae) is a selective and differential chromogenic agar medium intended for the qualitative and presumptive detection from stool specimens of Escherichia coli that are non-susceptible to carbapenems as pink colonies and KES (Klebsiella aerogenes, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloacae complex, and Serratia marcescens) that are non-susceptible to carbapenems as blue colonies. HardyCHROM CRE is intended as an aid in the detection, identification of colonization and control of these bacteria in a healthcare setting. HardyCHROM™ CRE is not intended to diagnose infection or guide therapy. Results can be interpreted after incubation for 18-24 hours. Subculture to non-selective medium is required for confirming identification, antimicrobial susceptibility testing and epidemiological typing. Features and Benefits: Non-susceptible E. coli produces colonies that are rose to magenta in color with darker pink centers. Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and Serratia spp. produce large, dark (10 per PK)

Leeds Acinetobacter Medium is a selective and differential medium intended for use as a plating technique to obtain a pure culture of Acinetobacter. The selective components in Leeds Acinetobacter Medium are traditionally cefsulodin and cephradine, which inhibit the growth of non-Acinetobacter gram-negative bacteria, and vancomycin, which inhibits the growth of gram-positive bacteria. Acinetobacter Medium substitutes antibiotics for the some of the antibiotics in the original reference. The presence of fructose and sucrose and neutral red, a pH indicator, allows the differentiation of bacteria based on the products released when the bacteria use fructose and sucrose as a nutrient source. The colonies of those that release acidic products are yellow, while the colonies of those that release alkaline products are red. Acinetobacter spp. will produce light pink mucoid colonies with a pink to mauve color diffused into the medium. The colonies are circular, convex, smooth, and opaque with entire margins of 1 to 2 mm in diameter after 24 hours at 35 degrees C. (10 per PK)

Our new tile-less system allows for fast results for the cultivation and identification of beta-hemolytic strains of Group B Streptococcus. Strep B Carrot Broth™ One-Step is a selective and differential medium which is intended for the detection of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) from anovaginal specimens collected from pregnant women. The medium is used as an aid in the qualitative determination of GBS colonization in pregnant women. The color change reaction from white to orange is representative of a positive result for presence of hemolytic GBS. Our one-step test is an improvement over conventional methods by increasing sensitivity, decreasing turn-around time, and lowering overall cost. All components are now included in the color change test, so the use of additional tiles is no longer necessary. Positives require no follow up testing! Advantages of Strep B Carrot Broth™ One-Step: One Step! Easy one-step process! Place sample directly in the tube. Adding tiles is no longer necessary. Simple read-out Development of any orange to red color whatsoever, indicates a positive result. Accurate results For positives, there is no need for further sub-culturing or testing. Low cost Lower overall cost when compared to LIM broth. Easy to use Can be used with liquid and gel-based transport systems. Multiple formats Carrot Broth media is available in multiple formats that work on many automated inoculating machines, such as the WASP®, BD Innova® and Kiestra™ (100 per PK)
