CHROMagar™ LIN-R (RUO), 5000mL
CHROMagar™ LIN-R (RUO) is a selective chromogenic culture medium for the qualitative detection, isolation, and differentiation of linezolid-resistant Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus spp. and Enterococcus spp. The medium supports surveillance and screening of clinical specimens, including nasal, rectal, and perianal swabs, enabling rapid presumptive identification of linezolid-resistant isolates for antimicrobial resistance monitoring.
👉 Key Performance Features:
High Sensitivity: Detects resistant organisms with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) as low as 8 μg/mL.
Direct Specimen Screening: Supports direct inoculation from clinical specimens, eliminating the need for preliminary enrichment.
Streamlined Identification: Colonies recovered on the medium are compatible with MALDI-TOF MS for rapid species identification.
Chromogenic Differentiation: Distinct colony morphologies and colors enable experienced users to presumptively differentiate Enterococcus faecium from E. faecalis, and Staphylococcus aureus from S. epidermidis, supporting faster workflow and interpretation.
📌 This product is labeled for Research Use Only (RUO).
🧪The 5000mL kit (LN762) contains:
