InTray® COLOREX™ ESBL

Cat. no.

11173002

PACK SIZE:

20 per package

COLOREX™ ESBL Agar is a selective and differential chromogenic medium, containing an extended-spectrum beta-lactam selective agent, intended for use as a plating technique to obtain a pure culture of Enterobacteriaceae that produce extendedspectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL). The test can be performed with samples composed of mixed populations of bacteria, e.g., stool, biological fluids, surface streaks, etc.

Sub-culture is necessary for bacterial identification and susceptibility testing

Simple Convenience
  • InTray® is designed for specimen collection/ inoculation at point-of-care
  • Saves time, material cost and waste, reducing exposure to collected sample
  • Place directly on the microscope tray for observation through the cassette’s clear anti-fog window
  • Visual chromogenic differentiation
