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.

The body and cap of our Detectamark Permanent Marker are moulded from high-density polyethylene, containing a non-toxic metal detectable additive. This compound can be detected by correctly calibrated in-line metal detection systems. The Detectamark features Sureflow ink, meaning the pen will continue to write for several days, even if the cap is left off. This alcohol-based ink will permanently mark most surfaces, including wood, plastic, glass, concrete, and clean or printed metals.

Available in blue, black, red, and green ink in bullet nib with a multi coloured pack also available.

Blue and black ink are available in the fine tip nib.

Bile Esculin Azide Agar

Bile Esculin Azide Agar is used for the selective isolation and differentiation of group D streptococci in a laboratory setting. Bile Esculin Azide Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Bile Esculin Azide Agar is a modification of the medium reported by Isenberg and Isenberg, Goldberg, and Sampson. This formula modifies Bile Esculin Agar by adding sodium azide and reducing the concentration of bile. The revised medium is more selective, but still provides rapid growth and efficient recovery of group D streptococci. Molecular taxonomic studies of the genus Streptococcus have placed enterococci, previously described 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. Bile Esculin Azide Agar selected for S. bovis, displayed earlier distinctive reactions, and eliminated the requirement for special incubation temperatures.

Palcam Agar Base

£919.79 vat excl.

£1,103.75 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
Palcam Agar Base is used with supplements as a selective and differential medium for the detection and isolation of Listeria monocytogenes from food and environmental samples. Palcam Agar Base is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Palcam Agar was developed by Van Netten et al in 1989 as an improved selective differential medium for the isolation of Listeria monocytogenes from food and environmental specimens. Improved selectivity is achieved by the combination of antibiotic supplements and microaerobic incubation. The double indicator system of esculin hydrolysis and mannitol fermentation aids differentiation of Listeria spp from enterococci and staphylococci which can be confused with Listeria spp on other types of culture media. Palcam Agar is listed within Annex E of ISO 11290-1:2017 as a suitable second selective agar.

EC Broth

£774.99 vat excl.

£929.99 vat Inc.

Availability: Out of stock
EC Broth is used for the detection of coliform bacteria at 37°C and Escherichia coli at 44.5°C. EC Broth is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. EC Broth ( Escherichia coli Broth) is a selective enrichment broth designed for the isolation of coliforms, including E. coli, from water and food samples. It was the recommended medium of the American Public Health Association (APHA) and the AOAC. EC Broth is made selective for coliforms by the inclusion of Bile Salts in the dehydrated medium. The selective nature of this medium ensures that the growth of non-coliform bacteria is minimized. The medium is buffered by the addition of potassium phosphates and osmotically balanced by sodium chloride. The medium is used at 37°C for coliform organisms and 44.5°C is recommended for the isolation E. coli.
