Presumptively identify Shigella cultures for epidemiological and diagnostic purposes using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Shigella dysenteriae Polyvalent (1-10) Agglutinating Sera. These sera are suitable for use in slide agglutination tests. Serological tests are based on the fact that antibodies produced in the serum in response to exposure to bacterial antigens will visibly agglutinate with bacteria carrying homologous antigens. Antisera provide serological identification only; full identification of an organism must be made in conjunction with biochemical testing.

Shigella dysenteriae can be differentiated on the basis of their reactions with specific antisera. Remel Shigella dysenteriae Polyvalent (1-10) Agglutinating Sera cover S. dysenteriae types 1 to 10. As Shigella can be confused with some non-motile serotypes of E. coli (Alkalescens‑Dispar group) an additional serum (R30164301) is available for differentiation.
Shigella dysenteriae Polyvalent (1-10) Agglutinating Sera are produced in rabbits and preserved with 0.5% phenol. Each dropper bottle contains 2 mL liquid and is supplied ready to use.
