Thermo Scientific™ C.L.E.D. Medium w/Andrade's Indicator (Dehydrated)

Description

• Isolate, enumerate and differentiate urinary pathogens with good colonial differentiation and clear diagnostic characteristics using Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ CLED Medium w/Andrade's Indicator (Dehydrated)
• The medium is a modification of the CLED Medium as described by Mackey and Sandys 1
• The addition of Andrade's indicator along with bromothymol blue in the medium enhances the appearance of colonies and aids in the identification of microorganisms
• The electrolyte deficient nature of CLED Medium prevents the swarming of Proteus species thereby further improving the colonial differentiation
• Use CLED Medium (with Andrade Indicator) to support the growth of the main urinary pathogens for diagnostic urinary bacteriology
• Provides easy colony differentiation as Escherichia coli appear as yellow opaque colonies, Proteus form translucent blue colonies, Salmonella appear as flat green colonies while Staphylococcus form deep yellow colonies
• Prevents swarming of Proteus species through the electrolyte deficient nature of CLED Medium
• Enhances the appearance of colonies and aids identification with the presence of Andrade’s Indicator
