CHROMagar MH Orientation
Chromogenic Mueller Hinton agar. This chromogenic medium allows for chromogenic identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing on the same plate. It can be used with direct inoculation of the sample.
CHROMagar MRSA
Chromogenic medium for the detection of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Significantly reducing workload, enabling large-scale patient screening.
CHROMagar mSuperCARBA
Designed to detect a wide range of carbapenemase producers (KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, OXA) with an impressive limit of detection (10 CFU/ml). It can even detect weakly expressed carbapenemases like OXA-48 and OXA-244 while maintaining high specificity.
CHROMagar COL-APSE
May be useful as a primary isolation medium for detecting colistin-resistant bacteria, particularly those with plasmid-mediated mcr-1 or novel mechanisms of polymyxin resistance. Also has an impressive limit of detection of 10 CFU/mL
CHROMagar Acinetobacter
A chromogenic medium specifically designed to facilitate colonisation surveillance in hospitals, by allowing its overnight growth with an intense red colony colour.
CHROMagar Staph aureus
For the isolation and direct differentiation of Staphylococcus aureus. This chromogenic medium has unrivalled sensitivity and specificity for detecting S. aureus within 18-24h.
