NEW CCA AGARChromogenic Coliform Agar is a selectiveand chromogenic medium for the detectionand direct identification of E. coli and totalcoliforms in 24 hours. It allows directdiferentiation between coliforms from the restof the microbial flora and it also differentiatesbetween E. coli and the rest of coliforms present.Advantages of CCAHigh recovery rates with different brands of filtrationmembranes, specially when our Coliform CV selectivesupplement has been added.Our CCA Agar is the ideal medium for detection and differentiationof coliforms and E. coli in water. The presenceof Tergitol ® 7 and the addition of antibiotics cefsulodin andvancomycin (Coliform CV selective supplement) reducesthe growth of acompanying flora resulting in excellent recoveryrates and specificity rates for coliforms and E. coli.Also ideal for waste water. With the new selective supplement“Coliform CV” our CCA Agar is even more selective,ideal for the analysis of waste water and very contaminatedsamples.Better colour contrast for easier interpretation.Advantages of chromogenic mediaBetter diagnosis, positive identification of E. coli.Detection of E. coli, total coliforms, and other enterobacteriaat the same time.Direct identification and enumeration of E. coli and coliformsin 24 hours which saves time.Easy interpretation of results.Simple and easy method.358Scharlab The Lab Sourcing Group
