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.

Buffered Listeria Enrichment Broth Base

Buffered Listeria Enrichment Broth Base

£1,251.06 vat excl.

£1,501.27 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
Buffered Listeria Enrichment Broth Base is used with supplements for selective enrichment of Listeria spp. in foods and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of human disease. 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 has indicated that the principle route of transmission is via consumption of foodstuffs contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Implicated vehicles of transmission include turkey, frankfurters, coleslaw, pasteurized milk, Mexican style cheese, and pate. Buffered Listeria Enrichment Broth, a modification of the formula by Lovett et al. was developed after research concluded that enrichment properties can be improved by increasing the buffering capacity of the medium with the addition of disodium phosphate. BLEB Base is based upon the FDA/BAM recommendations where the medium is supplemented with selective agents after an initial four hour, non-selective, pre-enrichment.

Dextrose Tryptone Agar

£860.15 vat excl.

£1,032.18 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
Dextrose Tryptone Agar is used for isolation of mesophilic or thermophilic spoilage microorganisms from food and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Dextrose Tryptone Agar evolved from research by Williams, while studying the cultivation and enumeration of thermophilic bacteria caused by “flat-sour” spoilage of canned foods. In the 1930’s, the National Canners Association specified the use of Dextrose Tryptone Agar for isolating “flat sour” organisms from food products. “Flat sour” spoilage of canned foods is caused by Bacillus coagulans (Bacillus thermoacidurans). Bacterial growth results in a 0.3 – 0.5 drop in pH, while ends of the can remain flat. B. coagulans is a soil microorganism, found in canned tomato products and dairy products. Conditions favorable for organism growth can result in spoilage of food products. Dextrose Tryptone Agar can be used to isolate other food spoilage bacteria including mesophilic, aerobic spore-formers and thermophilic “flat sour” spore-formers such as B. stearothermophilus.

Yersinia Selective Agar (Schiemann's CIN Agar)

£463.25 vat excl.

£555.90 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
Yersinia Selective Agar is used with cefsulodin and novobiocin for the isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica in a laboratory setting. Yersinia Selective Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. This medium is based on the work of Schiemann. It is used for the isolation and enumeration of Yersinia spp. from clinical samples and from food. The selective components are sodium desoxycholate, crystal violet, cefsulodin, irgasan and novobiocin. Yersiniae ferment mannitol with an intense, localized, acid production in the center of the colony which produces a red ‘bull’s eye’ appearance. The ratio of transparent border to red centre varies with serotype and environmental strains may appear rough with an irregular edge. Most other enteric bacteria, if they grow, produce a larger colony with a diffuse pinkish center and opaque outer zone.

Sabouraud Dextrose Agar with Lecithin & Tween

£918.04 vat excl.

£1,101.65 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (with Lecithin & Tween) is used for the isolation of fungi from surfaces sanitised with quaternary ammonium compounds in a laboratory setting. Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (with Lecithin & Tween) is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is a modification of Dextrose Agar described by Sabouraud. SDA is used for cultivating pathogenic and commensal fungi and yeasts. The high dextrose concentration and acidic pH of the formula permits selectivity of fungi. The addition of Lecithin and Tween to Sabouraud Dextrose Agar is used to neutralize antiseptics and disinfectants for environmental monitoring and other applications. Complete neutralization of disinfectants is important. Disinfectant carryover can cause false no-growth test results.

CLED Medium (Bevis Modification)

£843.19 vat excl.

£1,011.83 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
CLED Medium (Bevis Modification) is for the cultivation of coliforms, staphylococci and streptococci, and is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Bevis modified Mackey and Sandys original medium by introducing a double indicator to improve the differentiation of lactose and non-lactose fermenting coliforms, staphylococci and streptococci. The swarming of Proteus spp. is inhibited. Neogen’s NCM0220 CLED Medium will grow many of the more demanding streptococci of Lancefield groups A, B, C, G and F. This medium may not grow Pasteurella spp. or halophilic organisms.

Availability: Out of stock
W-L Nutrient Agar is used for the cultivation of yeasts, molds, and bacteria encountered in brewing and industrial fermentations. W-L Nutrient Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. W-L Nutrient Medium was developed by Green and Gray while studying various fermentation processes. An exhaustive study examining methods of fermentation control procedures in worts, beers, liquid yeasts and similar fermentation products led to the development of W-L Nutrient Medium. At a pH of 5.5, counts of viable baker’s yeast will grow on W-L Nutrient Medium. W-L Nutrient Medium is also referred to as “Wallerstein Laboratory Medium”.

Buffered Sodium Chloride - Peptone Broth pH 7.0

£64.93 vat excl.

£77.92 vat Inc.
Availability: Out of stock
Buffered Sodium Chloride-Peptone Broth pH 7.0 is the diluent specified by the Harmonized Pharmacopoeia for the microbiological examination of non-sterile products andconforms to Harmonized USP/EP/JP Requirements in a laboratory setting. Buffered Sodium Chloride-Peptone Broth pH 7.0 is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Buffered Sodium Chloride-Peptone Broth pH 7.0 is recommended by the Harmonized Pharmacopoeia (USP/EP/JP) for the microbiological examination of non-sterile products. The low level of peptone lessens the physiological shock experienced by microorganism when suspended in a diluent. The dual phosphate components create a buffered environment and sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance.
