CHROMagar™ Campylobacter, 5000mL
CHROMagar™ Campylobacter is a selective chromogenic culture medium for the detection and enumeration of Campylobacter spp. in food and environmental samples. The medium complies with ISO 10272-1 requirements and combines enhanced selectivity with chromogenic differentiation to improve recovery and simplify interpretation, even in samples with heavy background flora. Following 36-48 hours of incubation at 42°C, Campylobacter produces distinctive red colonies on a translucent medium, enabling rapid presumptive identification and reliable enumeration with an approximate 100% recovery rate.
👉 Key Performance Features:
Rapid Presumptive Detection: Enables qualitative detection, differentiation, and presumptive identification of thermotolerant Campylobacter spp. following 36-48 hours of microaerophilic incubation at 42°C.
Broad Sample Compatibility: Validated for rectal swabs, stool specimens, food products, animal feed, and environmental samples, supporting both clinical and food safety testing.
ISO 10272-1 Compliant: Suitable for Campylobacter detection in food and environmental samples in accordance with ISO 10272-1.
Supports Confirmatory Testing: Presumptive colonies are readily recovered for downstream organism identification, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and epidemiological typing.
Infection Control and Surveillance: Provides a reliable screening tool for Campylobacter detection while supporting infection prevention, food safety, and environmental monitoring programs.
