Reference : BK200HA

CAD$941.15

CCI Agar is used for the detection of Cronobacter spp. in food products and ingredients intended for human consumption and the feeding of animals. It is also used for the control of production environmental samples.

CCI Agar is used in particular for the detection of Cronobacter sakazakii and spp. in milk powder, dehydrated products and their components found in infant foods. The type composition of the Chromogenic Cronobacter Isolation Agar conforms to the formulation found in the directive NF EN ISO 22964.

Available as dehydrated medium: 500 g

Also available as ready-to-use medium: 20 Petri plates Ø 90 mm (BM15408).

In compliance with regulatory requirements, a USDA permit (VS 16-3) is mandatory for shipments from Canada to the USA due to the inclusion of peptone, an animal byproduct.

QUANTITY

Tryptone stimulates the growth of Cronobacter. Yeast extract is a source of complex vitamin B.
Sodium chloride maintains osmotic pressure.
Sodium desoxycholate allows the inhibition of Gram positive flora.

The enzyme α-glucosidase hydrolyzes the X-α-glucoside and liberates the aglycone 5 bromo-4-chloro-indolol. In the presence of oxygen, this aglycone is dimerized and forms the pigment bromo-chloro-indigo.

The association of ferric ammonium citrate and sodium thiosulfate allows the differentiation of enterobacteria that are H 2S positive from those of Cronobacter.
