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
Foods that require extensive handling and preparation or that are kept at slightly elevated temperatures after preparation are commonly involved in staphylococcal food poisoning.
Most species of staphylococci can produce some form of enterotoxin, the causative agent of staphylococcal enteritis. The production of these enterotoxins strongly correlates with the production of coagulase and/or thermonuclease1, both of which are used as markers of pathogenicity. When coagulase-positive staphylococci are prevalent in low numbers, as they are in many foods, they pose a limited risk of infection. However CPS numbers in excess of 1x105 cells/g are considered sufficient to produce enough enterotoxin to induce gastroenteritis.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
