System to detect microbial contamination in liquids and/or surfaces

Applications

• DIFFERENTIATION OF ENTEROBACTERIA IN URINE

Packaging

Box of 20 units

SIDE 1.- CLED AGAR

Medium in which most of the bacteria causing urinary infections grow, allowing the differentiation of their respective colonies. It has the advantage of preventing the Proteus swarming in the medium surface.

SIDE 2.- MACCONKEY AGAR

Medium employed to selectively identify enterobacteriaceae.
