Thermo Scientific™ Biochemical Identification System (O.B.I.S.) Mono

Description

• Rapidly differentiate Listeria monocytogenes from other Listeria species with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ Biochemical Identification System (O.B.I.S.) mono
• This rapid colorimetric test delivers simple and rapid results for the determination of D-alanyl aminopeptidase (DALAase)
• It has been designed for the differentiation of presumptive Listeria species that have been isolated from selective media and plated onto a secondary medium for further biochemical testing
• Identification of Listeria monocytogenes relies on the lack of the enzyme D-alanyl aminopeptidase
• 1,2,3 Listeria monocytogenes is the most common pathogenic Listeria spp
• and has been shown to be pathogenic to both humans and animals
• Use O.B.I.S
• mono to rapidly differentiate Listeria monocytogenes from other Listeria spp., reducing the need for a full biochemical identification of suspect colonies
• Simple—easy to implement Rapid—results in 6 minutes of testing suspect colonies Non-carcinogenic substrate We have developed a new system for aminopeptidase testing 4 using a non-carcinogenic substrate in response to health concerns associated with amino acid conjugates of ß naphthylamine 5,6 as these are potent carcinogens
