Detect and enumerate coliform organisms, including E. coli, while isolating and detecting Salmonella and Shigella spp. in both pathological and food specimens using Thermo Scientific™ MacConkey Agar No. 3.
Isolate, cultivate and differentiate dermatophytes, other fungi and yeasts, using acidic pH Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (EP, USP, JP, BP). The low pH supports the growth of fungi while inhibiting bacterial growth in mixed samples.
Isolate and enumerate Staphylococcus aureus with ready-to-use, highly selective and sensitive Thermo Scientific™ Baird-Parker Agar. The medium aids the recovery of damaged cells for presumptive identification of Staphylococcus aureus in food specimens.
Perform effortless Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) using Thermo Scientific™ Mueller Hinton Agar, a medium designed and manufactured according to the European standard, EUCAST, and the American standard, CLSI.
Isolate Legionella from clinical specimens using Thermo Scientific™ Legionella BMPA Selective Agar, a selective medium that exhibits optimal recovery of Legionellaceae in short incubation periods from both environmental samples and clinical specimens.
Isolate, cultivate and differentiate dermatophytes, fungi and yeasts, such as Candida albicans, using acidic pH Thermo Scientific™ Sabouraud Glucose Agar.
Isolate and differentiate Shigella and Salmonella spp. from clinical specimens and food, with ready-to-use Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Hektoen Enteric Agar. This selective medium is recommended for the isolation of salmonella from foods according to the Bacteriological Analytical Manual1.
Selectively isolate Haemophilus species from clinical specimens containing mixed flora using Thermo Scientific™ Haemophilus Selective Agar (Chocolate Agar with Vitox, Bacitracin, Vancomycin, Amphotericin B).
Isolate and identify Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli from clinical specimens using blood-free Thermo Scientific™ Karmali Selective Agar.
Isolate and identify dermatophytes and other fungi from hair, nail or skin scrapings using selective Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Dermasel Agar. Dermatophytes cultured on Dermasel Agar show characteristic colonial morphology with typical pigmentation.
Detect, isolate and enumerate yeasts and molds with ready-to-use Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Malt Extract Agar Contact Plate. Mycological peptone in the medium gives a luxuriant growth of yeasts and molds with typical morphology and pigmentation.
Isolate Clostridium perfringens in water with Thermo Scientific™ mCP Selective Agar and idenitfy characteristic growth of opaque yellow colonies. Most other Clostridium spp. will appear as either purple colonies, due to the lack of sucrose fermentation, or blue/green colonies where the organism is...
Enumerate heterotrophic bacteria from drinking water samples with ready-to-use Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ R2A Agar. This nutritionally reduced medium was specially designed to enhance the recovery of stressed and chlorine damaged bacteria from treated water samples.
Determine the susceptibility of staphylococci to meticillin and oxacillin with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Columbia Agar Base with 2% Salt. The addition of 2% sodium chloride to Columbia Agar Base is recommended by the British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (BSAC)1 using the BSAC disc...
Select and identify salmonellae (other than Salmonella typhi) from food, feed, water, and clinical samples with Thermo Scientific™ Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) diagnostic medium. The modified formula provides improved inhibition of Escherichia coli and Proteus species.
