A selective medium for the isolation of Salmonella and Shigella species, widely used in foodborne pathogen detection.
InMicro® Dehydrated: Desoxycholate Citrate Agar is a selective and differential medium designed for the isolation of Salmonella and Shigella species from mixed microbial populations, particularly in food safety and clinical testing. The medium contains desoxycholate, which inhibits the growth of Gram-positive organisms, and citrate, which supports the growth of Salmonella and Shigella. The incorporation of neutral red as a pH indicator allows for visual differentiation of these pathogens, which appear as distinctive colonies on the medium. This agar is essential for microbiological investigations where the detection of enteric pathogens is critical for foodborne illness diagnosis.
Manufactured at a cGMP-compliant facility under the ISO 13485 standard, ensuring high-quality manufacturing standards, consistency, and reliability for both research and industrial settings.
