Overview

Isolate Burkholderia cepacia from respiratory secretions of patients with cystic fibrosis with InMicro® Prepared: OFPBL Medium.

Burkholderia cepacia grows slowly and exhibit variable colony morphology on commonly used media for the culture of respiratory specimens. As a result, it is easily obscured by overgrowth with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, other respiratory pathogens, and /or commensal microbial flora. OFPBL (oxidative-fermentative polymyxin B-bacitracin-lactose) medium is a selective and differential medium for the isolation of B. cepacia complex from respiratory specimens of patients with CF.

Burkholderia cepacia is a motile aerobic oxidase positive Gram-negative bacillus commonly found in liquid reservoirs and moist environments. It is an important opportunistic pathogen and causes pulmonary infection among individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF).

OFPBL medium is a selective and differential medium for isolation of B. cepacia complex from respiratory specimens of patients with CF.

  • Selective: selective agents polymyxin B and bacitracin inhibit susceptible Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms respectively.
  • Easy-to-readB. cepacia complex produces yellow colonies with yellow zones in surrounding medium.
  • Ready-to-use: convenience of prepared media.
