InTray® COLOREX™ VRE

Cat. no.

11153002

PACK SIZE:

20 per package

COLOREX™ VRE prepared plated culture media is a selective and differential chromogenic medium, containing vancomycin, intended for use in isolation of pure cultures of vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis (VRE) from laboratory samples. Further, colony color is used to differentiate transmissible forms of resistance (i.e., VanA & VanB resistance) from intrinsically resistant (i.e. VanCVanDVanE, etc.) strains.

Simple Convenience

 

  • InTray® is designed for specimen collection, inoculation, and culture observation
  • Saves time and material costs while reducing exposure to collected sample
  • Place directly on the microscope tray for observation through the cassette’s clear anti-fog window
  • Visual chromogenic differentiation
 
Accurate Detection

Specially formulated medium promotes growth and chromogenic differentiation
