C. Sakazakii Media Range

C. sakazakii media range provides three key elements which ensure all C. sakazakii testing protocols are covered: C. sakazakii enrichment broth (ISO), C. sakazakii isolation medium (ISO) and C. sakazakii agar. The enrichment broth is based on lauryl sulphate tryptose broth and is used for the secondary enrichment of C. sakazakii. Extra sodium chloride delivers enhanced selectivity against competing organisms, while vancomycin inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. The chromogenic medium isolates C. sakazakii from milk and milk products, and C. sakazakii agar uses alpha-glucosidase activity to differentiate C. sakazakii strains from other members of the Enterobacteriaceae.
