Environmental Streptococci are considered to be major mastitis pathogens because they typically cause high somatic cell counts, persistent infections and milk bacterial contamination. CHROMagar™ Streptococcus was designed to help in the Mastitis diagnosis, particularly as an aid to differentiate species involved in the udder infection.
There are other applications where CHROMagar™ Streptococcus has also shown to be a useful tool to differentiate Streptococci in samples heavily loaded with a complex bacterial flora.
1. Highly selective : for Streptococcus group.
2. Color differentiation : allows a clear color differentiation of various Streptococci species.
3. Fast result : results within 24 h of incubation.
4. Easy interpretation : CHROMagar™ Streptococcus is suitable for specimens heavily loaded with microbial flora.
5. Possibility to carry additional tests directly from a colony.
Combining the performances of our technology, this three-sectors plate contains CHROMagar™ Staphylococcus, CHROMagar™ Streptococcus and CHROMagar™ Mastitis GN.
With the high specificity of the three CHROMagar™ media, this tool allows a very wide differentiation spectrum of microorganisms, particularly interesting in complex matrices like milk from Mastitis cases or animal forensic samples.
Pre-poured plates are now available in several countries in Europe, USA and Brazil. Ask your local distributor for more information.
