CHROMagar Yersinia, a new chromogenic agar for screening of potentially pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica isolates in stools.
CHROMagar Yersinia (CAY) is a new chromogenic medium for the presumptive detection of virulent Yersinia enterocolitica in stools. Based on a comparative analysis of 1,494 consecutive stools from hospitalized patients, CAY was found to be just as sensitive as the reference medium (cefsulodin-irgasan-novobiocin agar) but was significantly more specific and had a very low false-positive rate. CAY ...
متن کاملA novel chromogenic ester agar medium for detection of Salmonellae.
A novel agar medium, chromogenic Salmonella esterase (CSE) agar, for the differentiation of salmonellae is described. The agar contains peptones and nutrient extracts together with the following (grams per liter unless otherwise specified): 4-[2-(4-octanoyloxy-3, 5-dimethoxyphenyl)-vinyl]-quinolinium-1-(propan-3-yl carboxylic acid) bromide (SLPA-octanoate; bromide form), 0.3223; lactose, 14. 65...
متن کاملEvaluation of PCR-based screening for vancomycin-resistant enterococci compared with a chromogenic agar-based culture method.
Rapid detection of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) infection is very important for control and prevention of nosocomial spread of these bacteria. A multiplex PCR method for rapid screening of VRE has recently been developed. We performed a prospective study of VRE screening tests to compare the performance of PCR to that of a chromogenic agar-based culture method. From January to Decembe...
متن کاملComparison of Salmonella chromogenic medium with DCLS agar for isolation of Salmonella species from stool specimens.
Salmonella chromogenic medium (SCM; Oxoid, Basingstoke, United Kingdom), a new selective chromogenic medium, was compared to DCLS agar (Oxoid) for the detection and presumptive identification of Salmonella species from stool samples. This medium contains two chromogenic substrates, Magenta-cap (5-bromo-6-chloro-3-indolylcaprylate), which is hydrolyzed by Salmonella species to give magenta colon...
متن کاملEvaluation of the chromogenic agar chromID C. difficile.
Three selective media (chromID C. difficile agar, taurocholate cycloserine cefoxitin agar [TCCA; homemade], and CLO medium) were compared from 406 stool samples of patients suspected of having Clostridium difficile infection. The sensitivities of chromID C. difficile agar at 24 h and 48 h, CLO medium, and TCCA were 74.1%, 87%, 85.2%, and 70.4%, respectively.
