COLOREX O157 is designed for simultaneous growth, observation and chromogenic differentiation of E. coli O157 from clinical or food specimens. This device makes preliminary detection easy by producing distinctive color differences between the growth ofE. coli O157 as well as other organisms within as little as 18-24 hours – all while inhibiting the growth of mold, fungi, and other bacteria.
