Additional Selective and Differential Cell Culture Media
NEOGEN Cronobacter Selective Broth, 500 g
Cronobacter Selective Broth (CSB) is recommended by ISO 22964 for the isolation and identification of Cronobacter spp. (formerly Enterobacter sakazakii), and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.Although rarely causing infections in immunocompetent adults, members of the Cronobacter genus have been implicated in sepsis, meningitis and necrotizing enterocolitis with a high death rate in neonates. These opportunistic pathogens are common in the environment and their ability to survive desiccation presents a significant risk for post-pasteurization contamination and survival in spray dried milk products. Enzymatic digest of animal tissues and meat extract provide a source of nitrogen and essential vitamins.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/cronobacter-selective-broth

NEOGEN Slanetz and Bartley Agar, 500 g
Slanetz and Bartley Medium is used for the enumeration of enterococci from water samples as described in ISO 7899-2, and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. This medium was originally described by Slanetz and Bartley for the enumeration of enterococci from water samples using a membrane filtration technique, but it may also be used as a spread plate for the examination of other sample types. Enterococci reduce tetrazolium chloride to the insoluble red dye formazan, producing colonies which are dark red or maroon on the surface of the membrane or agar. This reaction is not exclusive to enterococci, and the count at this stage should be considered presumptive. Colonies may be confirmed as enterococci by demonstrating aesculin hydrolysis using Kanamycin Aesculin Azide Agar (NCM0198).For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/slanetz-bartley-medium
NEOGEN Agar No. 4 - Plant Tissue Culture Grade, 500 g
Agar No.4 has been selected specifically for use as a gelling agent in plant tissue culture techniques, and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.Agar No.4 is selected primarily on gel strength, a parameter of particular importance for plant tissue culture techniques, and then tested to ensure it meets the parameters set by a major Horticultural company. The agar contains no nutrients for plant growth and is designed to be incorporated into classical formulations such as Murashige and Skoog, as well as customer’s own formulations.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/agar-number-4-plant-tissue-culture-grade
NEOGEN Yeast Extract, 500 g
Yeast Extract is an autolysate of yeast cells used in preparing microbiological culture media in a laboratory setting. Yeast Extract is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.Yeast Extract is the water-soluble portion of autolyzed yeast. The autolysis is carefully controlled to preserve naturally occurring B-complex vitamins. Yeast Extract is prepared and standardized for bacteriological use and cell cultures and is an excellent stimulator of bacterial growth. Yeast Extract is generally employed in the concentration of 0.3% - 0.5%. Yeast Extract is typically prepared by growing baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces spp., in a carbohydrate-rich plant medium. The yeast is harvested, washed, and resuspended in water, where it undergoes autolysis, i.e., self-digestion using the yeast’s enzymes.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/yeast-extract
NEOGEN LESS Plus Medium Irradiated, 10 kg
Listeria monocytogenes, described first in 1926 by Murray, Webb and Swann, is an extensive problem in public health and food industries. This organism has the ability to cause human illness and death, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. Epidemiological evidence from outbreaks of listeriosis indicates the principle route of transmission is via the consumption of foods contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Implicated vehicles of transmission include meat, eggs, chicken, vegetables, and dairy products. Listeria spp. are ubiquitous in nature, present in a wide range of unprocessed foods and in soil, sewage, and river water. Certain strains of Listeria spp. are able to survive the manufacturing and ripening processes in dairy products.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/less-plus-medium
NEOGEN Fluid Thioglycolate Medium, 500g
Fluid Thioglycolate Medium is used for sterility testing. This medium conforms to Harmonized USP/EP/JP requirements and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.Fluid Thioglycolate Medium is recommended by the Harmonized Pharmacopoeia for sterility testing and conforms to USP/EP/JP performance specification. In this formulation casein and yeast extract provide a source of nitrogen, essential vitamins and amino acids. The glucose provides a carbon source and sodium chloride maintains osmotic balance. L-Cystine and sodium Thioglycolate act as reducing agents to create an anaerobic environment and maintain a low Eh. This is aided by the low level of agar which reduces the oxygen permeability through the medium. Resazurin is an oxidation indicator which turns from colorless to red/pink when oxidised.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/fluid-thioglycollate-medium-ncm0108

NEOGEN Violet Red Bile Agar with MUG (VRBA-MUG), 500 g
Violet Red Bile Agar with MUG is used for the detection of coliforms and the fluorogenic detection of Escherichia coli. Violet Red Bile Agar with MUG is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Violet Red Bile Agar W/ MUG is specified in many procedures to enumerate coliforms in food and dairy products. In 1982, Feng and Hartman developed a rapid fluorogenic assay for Escherichia coli by incorporating 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide (MUG) into Lauryl Tryptose Broth. Similarly, incorporating MUG into Violet Red Bile Agar permits the detection of E. coli among the coliform colonies. Standard methods procedures specify Violet Red Bile Agar with MUG for detecting E. coli in food and dairy products by fluorescence. This medium is often abbreviated as VRBA w/ MUG.For more information visit https://www.neogen.com/solutions/Microbiology/violet-red-bile-agar-with-mug
