Isolate and cultivate Streptococcus pyogenes from throat cultures and upper respiratory specimens with this selective, ready-to-use medium.
$108.00 – $926.00Price range: $108.00 through $926.00
Isolate and cultivate Streptococcus pyogenes from throat cultures and upper respiratory specimens with InMicro® Prepared: Strep Selective Agar prepared plates with RNA, maltose, neomycin, polymyxin B. The medium is based on the formulation of Roantree, Rantz and Haines. The addition of ribonucleic acid and maltose increases the production of the streptolysin S, the active substance causing hemolysis on blood agar. Neomycin and polymyxin B are selective agents which facilitate isolation of S. pyogenes by suppressing commensal microbial flora found in the oropharynx.
Streptococcus pyogenes is an important human pathogen that causes a wide variety of acute infections, such as soft tissue infections and pharyngitis; severe life-threatening infections, such as streptococcal toxic shock syndrome; and devastating post-infectious sequelae, such as rheumatic fever and glomerulonephritis.
Use Strep Selective Agar with RNA, maltose, neomycin, polymyxin B for the primary isolation of Streptococcus pyogenes from throat cultures and upper respiratory specimens.
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.
