Popis

General description

GranuCult^® prime Pseudomonas CFC/CN agar (base) (acc. ISO 13720 and ISO 16266) is used for the detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas spp. The peptone mixture in Pseudomonas Selective Agar Base allows the growth of a broad spectrum of pseudomonades. The amount of potassium sulfate and magnesium chloride supports and enhances the pigment production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. When supplemented with Pseudomonas CN Selective Supplement (1.07624 ) and glycerol, the medium complies with the specifications given by EN ISO 16266 for the detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in water using the membrane filtration technique. When supplemented with Pseudomonas CFC Selective Supplement (1.07627 ), the medium complies with the specifications given by EN ISO 13720 for the detection and enumeration of presumptive Pseudomonas spp. in meat and meat products, including poultry.

Application

GranuCult^® prime Pseudomonas CFC/CN agar (base) is suitable for the detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas spp. By choosing the appropriate selective supplement and incubation temperature, the medium becomes selective for Pseudomonas spp. (CFC Agar), or Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CN Agar).

Features and Benefits

• GranuCult^® offers superior granulated culture media
• Safe and sustainable due to reduced risks associated with fine dust and toxic substance inhalation, resulting in a safer work environment
• Excellent wettability, solubility, and free-flowing properties
• Convenient, with minimal component separation and clumping, even under warm or humid conditions
• High batch-to-batch reproducibility
• Prolonged shelf life of up to five years
• High number of test strains exceeding all regulatory demands
• Granulation technology allows many supplements to be included, with no need to add these separately

Other Notes

• Do not keep the liquid medium (45-50 °C) longer than 4 hours.
• Do not re-melt the medium several times.
• The prepared plates are clear and yellowish.
• The self-prepared Pseudomonas CN as well as CFC agar plates can be stored at +2 °C to +8 °C in the dark and protected against evaporation for up to 1 month.

Footnote

We offer two media types: the superior granulated GranuCult^® and the cost-efficient powdered NutriSelect^® culture media, depending on your needs.
The designations basic, plus, or prime are added to indicate the quality control level, from basic quality control to standard QC plus to prime for full regulatory compliance.
