HardyCHROM UTI

Description

• 15x100mm plt 10/pk R

HardyCHROM™ UTI is a non-selective chromogenic medium recommended for the cultivation, differentiation and enumeration of urinary tract pathogens based on colony color and morphology.

HardyCHROM™ UTI is a differential culture medium that facilitates the isolation and differentiation of urinary tract pathogens, including gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The development of various colors, due to chromogenic substances in the media, allows for the differentiation of microorganisms from the primary set-up of a urine specimen.

HardyCHROM™ UTI can be used to identify E.coli and Enterococcus spp. based on their characteristic color reactions, with no further testing needed. Proteus mirabilis can be identified by color and a spot indole test. HardyCHROM UTI is also helpful in the identification of Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Candida spp, Klebsiella spp, Enterobacter spp, etc. See J100 for a biplate that separates out gram negative from positive organisms.
