Compact Dry EC (E. coli and coliforms) E. coli / K. oxytoca Klebsiella oxytoca Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Bacteria form blue and red colonies
Compact Dry EC is a medium for E. coli and
coliforms. The medium contains two kinds of
chromogenic enzyme substrates: Magenta-Gal and
X-Gluc. E. coli forms blue colonies. The total
coliform group count is the sum of both the red and
blue colonies.
Regression line data from Compact Dry EC method
plotted versus the conventional VRBA method
(violet red bile agar) shows a good correlation per
50 food samples for the population of coliforms.
Compact Dry EC has gained various approvals
(s. table on last side).
Staphylococcus aureus
Compact Dry X-SA for Staphylococcus
aureus
Compact Dry X-SA is a medium used to determine
Staphylococcus aureus by means of selective growth
and differentiation via chromogenic substrates. The
medium is based on an improved mannitol-salt
agar. During growth Staphylococcus aureus converts
substrates for acid phosphatase and β-glucosidase
into blue colored products. This results in formation
of light blue colonies.
Compact Dry X-SA has gained various approvals
(s. table on last side). For further information please
consider the special Compact Dry X-SA flyer.
E. cloacae
Compact Dry ETB for Enterobacteriaceae
Using Compact Dry ETB it´s very easy to detect
Enterobacteriaceae. The medium contains glucose
and selective agents for differentiation and
enumeration of Enterobacteriaceae. Specific colonies
will be almost visible in a reddish purple color.
Compact Dry ETB has gained various approvals
(s. table on last side).
Compact Dry ETC is a plate for easy E. faecalis
detection of Enterococci in food and water
Enterococci occur and grow in a variety of fermented
foods. The presence of enterococci in food products
has long been considered as an indication of poor
sanitary conditions during production and
processing. On the other hand, enterococci are
specifically used for the fermentation of a variety of
foods. It is claimed that enterococci play an important
role in the development of the organoleptic
properties of the fermented foods.
For water, the presence of enterococci serves as an
indicator of fecal contamination. Enterococci in water
can only come from human or animal feces.
The Compact Dry ETC is based on the usage of
X-glucoside (X-Gluc.) and antibiotics as selective
agents. Enterococci will grow with blue to blue green
colonies after incubation for 24 hours at 37 °C.
