Known Limitations:

  1. DO NOT REUSE. Single-use Device that is not suitable for re-work or reuse.
  2. Certain viruses and Micro-organisms have reduced viability on dry swabs so immediate transfer or premoisten with 1-2 drops of sterile saline after sampling is permitted (if lack of exudates) when transport is necessary to prevent cell stress or no recovery.

Shelf Life: 2 years.

Sterilisation Method: Gamma Irradiation to achieve a SAL of 10-6

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.

Xylose Lysine Deoxycholate (XLD) Agar (ISO) is a selective agar for the detection of Salmonella spp. in food, animal feed and in environmental samples from the food production area as described in ISO 6579-1:2017. Xylose Lysine Deoxycholate (XLD) Agar (ISO) is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. A selective, diagnostic agar for the detection of Salmonella spp. in food, animal feed and in environmental samples from the food production area as described in ISO 6579-1:2017. Originally formulated by Taylor to differentiate enteric pathogens, the agar is widely used as the preferred differential medium for Salmonella spp. The medium is void of peptones but instead uses yeast extract as a carbon, nitrogen and vitamin source and xylose, lactose and sucrose are fermentable carbohydrates. Salmonella are able to ferment xylose to produce acid but not lactose or sucrose. When the xylose is exhausted Salmonella will decarboxylate lysine shifting the pH back to neutral. At near neutral pH, Salmonella can reduce sodium thiosulfate producing hydrogen sulfide which creates a complex with ferric ammonium citrate to produce black or black centred colonies. Other organisms are able decarboxylate lysine but acid production from the fermentation of lactose and sucrose keeps the pH too acidic for H2S production. Selectivity is achieved through the incorporation of sodium deoxycholate and phenol red acts as a pH indicator. According to ISO 6579-1:2017, subculture is performed separately from both Rappaport-Vassiliadis medium with Soya (RVS) and Muller-Kauffmann tetrathionate-novobiocin (MKTTn) broth. This medium conforms to the performance and formulation requirements of ISO 6579-1:2017.

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.
