General description

Acinetobacter Millichrome™ plus Supplement is a selective media supplement for the growth promotion of Acinetobacter. Millichrome™ chromogenic media is a specialized type of culture medium used to detect and isolate specific groups of bacteria based on their ability to produce enzymes with chromogenic substrates. This Acinetobacter supplement is composed of growth and regulatory factors. One vial of the supplement is sufficient for 5 L of final media.

Application

Acinetobacter Millichrome™ plus Supplement is a selective chromogenic media supplement intended for use in the qualitative detection, differentiation and presumptive identification of Acinetobacter from various samples.

Components
