INTENDED USE
- BacterChrom™ E.coli is a selective chromogenic medium designed for the detecton and enumeraton of ß-glucuronidase positve E. coli in food, water and environmental samples.
- The packaging with semi-permeable Cellophane film helps balance the humidity of the environment during storage.
PRINCIPLES
- BacterChrom™ E.coli utilizes chromogenic substrates that react with specific enzymatic activities of E. coli, producing blue colonies for easy differentiation. Selective agents are incorporated to suppress non-target organisms, ensuring specificity. This formulation allows for the rapid and reliable detection of ß-glucuronidase-positive E. coli, streamlining microbiological workflows in food safety and environmental testing.
- Allow to warm to room temperature before inoculation, dry the plates in an incubator with the covers partially removed.
- Streak the sample or place the inoculated membranes on plate surface.
- Incubate in aerobic conditions at 37°C for 24 hours.
RESULTS
- Qualitative reading and interpretation of the plates:
| Microorganism | Typical colony apprearance |
| E.coli | blue |
| Other Gram (-) bacteria | colorless |
BacterLab ensures the quality of each product batch by testing with ATCC reference strains.
| Reference strains | Incubation conditions | Expected results |
| E. coli ATCC 35218 | Incubate for 24 hours at 35 – 37 °C | Blue colonies |
| S. aureus ATCC 25923 | Inhibited | |
| E. faecalis ATCC 29212 | Inhibited |
