Agar media of the Uricult plus immersion culture plate
For detailed results in bacteriological urine diagnostics, each Roche Uricult plus ready-to-use culture tray has 3 individual agar media that together provide a versatile basis for analysis.
- One side of the culture medium carrier is coated with greenish CLED agar . This serves as general culture medium for precise determination of the general microbial load.
- The other side has red-brown Mac Conkey agar. This enables the growth of Gram-negative bacteria in colonies up to the size of a pinhead.
- In addition, a colorless enterococci nutrient medium is applied. This enables Uricult plus to detect enterococci and certain group B streptococci.
