Supplier: Alkali Scientific SCT00
Simmons Citrate Slant, 4mL, 13x100mm Tube, 10/Pk is a selective and differential medium used to determine an organism’s ability to utilize citrate as a sole carbon source and ammonium salts as the sole nitrogen source. Organisms capable of citrate metabolism produce alkaline by products that change the color of the indicator from green to blue, providing a clear visual result. Each tube contains 4mL of prepared medium in a 13x100mm slant format with a screw cap closure for secure incubation and handling. Commonly used in biochemical identification of Gram negative enteric bacteria, particularly members of the Enterobacteriaceae family, this ready to use medium supports routine microbial identification procedures in clinical diagnostics, academic laboratories, and microbiology quality control testing.
