Alkali Scientific Bile Esculin Agar 20mL 100 x 15 mm Plate, 10/Pk
Bile Esculin Agar (BEA) is a selective and differential medium used for the isolation and presumptive identification of Group D Streptococci and Enterococci. Each sterile 100 × 15 mm plate contains 20 mL of nutrient agar formulated with beef extract, peptones, bile salts (oxgall), esculin, and ferric citrate. Bile salts inhibit most gram positive bacteria except enterococci and Group D streptococci, enabling selective growth. Organisms capable of hydrolyzing esculin produce esculetin, which reacts with ferric citrate to form a dark brown to black complex within the agar. This visible blackening around colonies provides a clear diagnostic indicator. The medium is widely used in clinical and food microbiology laboratories for rapid screening and differentiation of Enterococcus species and related organisms.
STEMCELL Technologies STEMdiff™ Forebrain Neuron Differentiation Kit, Size: 1 Kit
The STEMdiff™ Forebrain Neuron Differentiation Kit is used in conjunction with the STEMdiff™ Forebrain Neuron Maturation Kit (Catalog #08605) to generate a mixed population of forebrain-type (FOXG1-positive) neurons from neural progenitor cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells. This kit is optimized to work with STEMdiff™ SMADi Neural Induction Kit, which supplies the appropriate neural progenitor cells. Neurons derived using these products are versatile tools for modeling human neurological development and disease, drug screening, toxicity testing, and cell therapy validation.
