HardyCHROM™ SS NoPRO Agar, (for Salmonella and Shigella), a chromogenic medium for stool pathogen screening without false positives from Proteus 15x100mm plate
No Proteus, No Problem!
HardyCHROM™ SS NoPro (no-Proteus) Agar is recommended for the selective isolation and differentiation of Salmonella and Shigella spp. from stool. HardyCHROM™ SS NoPro Agar is intended as a primary screening tool to distinguish Salmonella and Shigella spp. from non-pathogenic enteric bacteria based on colony color, while inhibiting the growth and characteristic swarming of Proteus spp. The enhanced inhibition of Proteus reduces the expense involved in working up non-pathogens that could mimic enteric pathogens. Further species confirmation of suspect colonies via conventional or automated methods is recommended.
Features and Benefits:
Reduces costly false-positive work-ups, due to Proteus spp.!
Less colony picking, subculturing, and identifications
No need for TSI, LIA, KIA tubes
Reduces use of expensive ID cards
Reduces the number of plates for primary stool setup
Increased specificity
