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 fastidious and non‑fastidious anaerobic bacteria from clinical samples within 24 to 72 hours using Thermo Scientific™ Anaerobe Recovery and Isolation Agar (A.R.I.A™).
Isolate and presumptively identify Clostridium difficile from clinical specimens with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Brazier's Clostridium Difficile Selective Agar (HPA). The presence of p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid in the medium promotes the production of p-cresol - a metabolite of C.
Cultivate and isolate a wide variety of fastidious microorganisms with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Columbia Blood Agar with 8mg/L Aztreonam. Columbia Agar is an ideal base medium for the addition of blood, especially in selective formulations when supplemented with antimicrobial agents.
Selectively isolate Helicobacter pylori from clinical samples such as gastric biopsies with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Helicobacter Pylori Selective Agar. Due to the addition of antimicrobial agents cefsulodin and amphotericin B in the formulation, the medium provides selectivity against Candida...
Recognize Gram-positive cocci easier using Thermo Scientific™ Columbia Horse Blood CNA Agar, a selective medium for the isolation of staphylococci and streptococci from both clinical specimens and food samples.
Selectively isolate Streptococcus species with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Streptococcal Selective Agar C.O.B.A. (Colistin sulphate Oxolinic acid Blood Agar) Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Columbia Blood Agar forms the base for the medium to which antimicrobial agents and defibrinated horse blood are added...
Cultivate and isolate a wide variety of fastidious microorganisms with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Columbia Blood Agar with Neomycin. Columbia Agar is an ideal base medium for the addition of blood especially in selective formulations when supplemented with antimicrobial agents.
Selectively isolate Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli from human, animal, avian and environmental specimens with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Campylobacter Selective Agar (Skirrow). The medium is recommended for the isolation of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli from fecal samples.
Cultivate and isolate fastidious pathogens and other microorganisms with clearly visible hemolytic reactions with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Blood Agar Base No. 2 with Sheep Blood. The specially designed formulation meets the demands for a nutritious blood agar which would permit the maximum recovery...
Isolate, cultivate non-sporing anaerobes and/or undertake susceptibility testing of aerobic bacteria from clinical samples using Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Anaerobe Blood Agar (WC) with Nalidixic acid + TWEEN™ commonly known as NAT medium.
Isolate, cultivate and /or carry out susceptibility testing of a wide variety of anaerobic organisms from clinical samples with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Anaerobe Blood Agar (Wilkins Chalgren) with Neomycin.
Isolate and differentiate bacteria involved in bovine mastitis with Thermo Scientific™ Aesculin Blood Agar (Modified). Due to the relatively high agar content, the medium exhibits a high gel strength so that all samples of a quarter milk can be spread onto a single plate for greater efficiency.
Grow a wide variety of fastidious organisms on Thermo Scientific™ Blood Agar (TSA with Sheep Blood), a general purpose non-selective medium with the addition of sheep blood in the formulation to promote the presence and visualization of haemolytic reactions so it can be used as a diagnostic tool.
Perform effortless Antimicrobial Susceptibility Tests (AST) for fastidious organisms using Thermo Scientific™ Mueller-Hinton Agar with 5% Sheep Blood prepared media plates. A precise clear zone will help to determine if the bacteria is resistant or sensitive to the antibiotics used.
