Description

  • Isolate and differentiate Bacillus cereus from food samples with chromogenic Thermo Scientific™ Brilliance™ Bacillus Cereus Agar Base (Dehydrated)
  • Brilliance Bacillus cereus Agar incorporates the chromogenic substrate 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-ß-glucopyranoside, which is cleaved by the enzyme ß-glucosidase present in Bacillus cereus resulting in the formation of blue/green colonies
  • Combination of Polymixin B and Trimethoprim inhibit most Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria other than Bacillus cereus respectively
  • Bacillus cereus , a Gram-positive, aerobic, spore-forming rod-shaped bacterium, is widely distributed in nature
  • It is readily isolated from soil, dust, cereal crops, vegetation, animal hair, fresh water and sediments
  • Therefore, it is not surprising to find the organism associated with virtually every raw agricultural commodity
  • The role of Bacillus cereus in food poisoning, particularly from the consumption of contaminated rice, is now well documented 1,2,3
  • The organism has also been implicated in eye infections 4,5 and a wide range of other conditions, including abscess formation, meningitis, septicemia, and wound infection
  • Easy-to-read : cleavage of the chromogenic substrate the enzyme ß-glucosidase present in Bacillus cereus results in the formation of blue/green colonies
  • Selective : a combination of Polymixin B and Trimethoprim make the medium selective for Bacillus cereus
  • Brilliance Bacillus cereus Agar incorporates the chromogenic substrate 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-ß-glucopyranoside, which is cleaved by the enzyme ß-glucosidase present in Bacillus cereus resulting in the formation of blue/green colonies
  • Polymixin B inhibits most Gram-negative organisms and some Gram-positive organisms including some Bacillus other than Bacillus cereus
  • Trimethoprim, which is also added to the medium, blocks folic acid synthesis necessary for DNA production and is active against many Gram-positive bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus , Enterococcus spp
  • and some non-cereus Bacillus species
  • The combination of these two antibiotics has been shown to be more effective than the use of polymyxin B alone 3
  • Because Bacillus thuringiensis is biochemically identical to Bacillus cereus, it will also grow as blue/green colonies on this medium
  • Bacillus thuringiensis is known primarily as an insect pathogen, but it has also been reported to have been linked to some human gastroenteritis outbreaks 4
  • Not all products are available for sale in all territories
  • Please inquire
  • Remel™ and Oxoid™ products are now part of the Thermo Scientific brand.
