The HygieneChek™ Enterobacteriaceae/ Enterobacteriaceae is an easy to use, reliable and economic agar-based test system to check for microbiological contamination in various liquids and on surfaces. It is based on a double-sided agar paddle which is used to detect and identify various microorganisms commonly found in foods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Microbiological samples can be taken from liquids and surfaces directly in the processing environment (including production lines), kitchens, cafeterias, supermarkets, military areas and clean rooms. It can also be used for air sampling.
The only equipment required for the HygieneChek™ Enterobacteriaceae/ Enterobacteriaceae is an incubator and optionally a bench top autoclave. The test system consists of a container with a screw cap and a removable paddle. The surface of the paddle is covered on both sides with a nutrient agar medium.
Enterobacteriaceae VRBD (Agar is reddish brown) - The medium is used for the selective detection of Enterobacteriaceae. Enterobacteriaceae metabolize glucose in the medium and appear as pink, violet or violet-red colonies. Colorless colonies are not members of the Enterobacteriaceae family.
Scigiene offers a wide range of different agar types and also custom made solutions are possible. HygieneChek™ is also ideally suited for the transport of microbiological samples.
