Description
Isolate and enumerate coagulase-positive staphylococci in food or clinical samples in just 24 hours with selective, chromogenic Thermo Scientific™ Brilliance™ Staph 24 Agar. Coagulase-positive staphylococci (CPS) grow as dark blue colonies on a clear background, making results much easier to read than traditional Baird-Parker Agar formulations.
Isolate and enumerate coagulase-positive staphylococci from food or clinical samples in just 24 hours with this selective, chromogenic medium to aid rapid food safety assessment or to facilitate faster patient treatment.
- Results in half the time: 24 hours, compared to the 48 hours required for Baird-Parker Egg Yolk Tellurite Agar (BP-EYT)
- Fewer confirmatory tests: selective agents have been carefully designed to inhibit the growth of Gram-negative flora and non-target Gram-positive organisms
- Easy-to-read test: thechromogen is specifically activated by CPS which colors positive colonies dark blue, while coagulase-negative staphylococci are inhibited or remain colorless
- Ready-to-use convenience of prepared media
