The media that Gem Scientific use is designed to not only provide you with the most accurate results but visually distinctive dependent on the product type and the level of bacteria found at the original testing location

Within each box of Gem Scientific dip slides is a handy comparison chart to demonstrate what level of contamination the tested area has. This is measured by the coverage of the media by the bacteria recovered from the sample or area tested. Regular testing is recommended to ensure your regimes are being maintained and bacteria levels are as low as possible.

Storage

Store in a cool dry place (Optimum 8-15oC) and use before the expiry date on the box. Do not use slides if there is any sign of growth before opening. Slides remain usable while the agar is smooth and attached to the slide. A small amount of water may collect at the bottom of the tube. This is condensate from the agar and does not affect performance, provided the agar still fills the tray.

Disposal

Used slides should be incinerated, autoclaved or soaked in disinfectant for several hours before disposal.

Malt Extract

£39.83 vat excl.

£47.80 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
Malt Extract is a dehydrated extract of malt for use in preparing microbiological culture media in a laboratory setting. Malt Extract is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Malt Extract is a clarified, water-soluble extract of malted barley. Malt Extract is a useful ingredient of culture media designed for the propagation of yeasts and molds. This ingredient is suitable for yeasts and molds because it contains a high concentration of carbohydrates, particularly maltose. The approximate percentage of reducing sugars in Malt Extract is 60 – 63%.The high carbohydrate content makes malt extract very sensitive to overheating which results in darkening of the medium it is used in. Malt Extract is generally employed in culture media at concentrations between 10 to 100 grams per liter. Malt Agar, a medium recommended for the detection and isolation of yeast and molds from dairy products, food, and as a stock culture, contains Malt Extract. Wort Agar, used for the cultivation and enumeration of yeasts, has Malt Extract as one of the main ingredients in the formula. Several media containing Malt Extract are specified in standard methods.

Fraser Broth Base

£2,027.90 vat excl.

£2,433.48 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
Fraser Broth Base is used with Acriflavin, Nalidixic Acid, and Ferric Ammonium Citrate for the selective enrichment of Listeria spp. Fraser Broth Base is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Formulated according to MLG Appendix 1.09 (for the ISO 11290 formulation please use NCM0001). Listeria monocytogenes, described first in 1926 by Murray, Webb, and Swann, is an extensive problem in public health and food industries. This organism has the ability to cause human illness and death, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. Epidemiological evidence from outbreaks of listeriosis indicated the principle route of transmission is via the consumption of foodstuffs contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Implicated vehicles of transmission include turkey frankfurters, coleslaw, pasteurized milk, Mexican style cheese and pate. Half Fraser (Demi Fraser) Broth Base is based on the formulation of Fraser and Sperber. This medium is used in rapid detection of Listeria from food and environmental samples. Listeria spp. grow over a pH range of 5.0 – 9.6, and survive in food products with pH levels outside these parameters. Listeria spp. are microaerophilic, Gram-positive, asporogenous, non-encapsulated, non-branching, short, motile rods. Motility is pronounced at 20°C. Identification of Listeria spp. is based on successful isolation of the organism, biochemical characterization, and serological confirmation.

DRBC Agar (BAM)

£1,412.42 vat excl.

£1,694.90 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
DRBC Agar (BAM) is used for the selective isolation and enumeration of yeasts and molds from foods in a laboratory setting. DRBC Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. DRBC Agar (BAM) is based on Dichloran Rose Bengal Chlortetracycline (DRBC) Agar formula described by King, Hocking, and Pitt. DRBC Agar conforms with APHA guidelines for the mycological examination of foods containing chloramphenicol rather than chlortetracycline as proposed by King, Hocking, and Pitt. DRBC Agar is a selective medium, supporting good growth of yeasts and molds.

Bile Aesculin Agar

£1,832.00 vat excl.

£2,198.40 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
Bile Esculin Agar is used for the selective isolation and differentiation of group D streptococci from foods and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Bile Esculin Agar is based on the formulation described by Swan and further evaluated by Facklam and Moody. Rochaix first noted the value of esculin hydrolysis in the identification of enterococcci. Meyer and Schonfeld added bile to the esculin medium and demonstrated 61 of 62 enterococci strains were able to grow and hydrolyze esculin, while other streptococci could not. Molecular taxonomic studies of the genus Streptococcus have placed enterococci, previously described as group D streptococci, in the genus Enterococcus. The ability to hydrolyze esculin in the presence of bile is a characteristic of enterococci and group D streptococci. Swan compared the use of an esculin medium containing 40% bile salts with the Lancefield serological method of grouping, and reported that a positive reaction on the bile esculin medium correlated with a serological group D precipitin reaction. Facklam and Moody found that the bile esculin test provided a reliable means of identifying group D streptococci and differentiating them from non-group D streptococci.

Triple Sugar Iron (TSI) Agar is used for the differentiation of microorganisms on the basis of dextrose, lactose, and sucrose fermentation and hydrogen sulfide production. Triple Sugar Iron (TSI) Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. This is a modification of the Krumwiede and Kohn medium of 1917 which differentiates some of the Enterobacteriaceae on the basis of four reactions; fermentation of lactose, glucose and sucrose and H2S production. This medium should be used in conjunction with a urease test to eliminate Proteus spp. when screening for Salmonella spp.
