Culture Media, For Isolation Of Pathogenic Neisseria

GC Agar Base (150mm) 10/PK R04030;

Reduced or no recovery of some strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

BBL Chocolate II Agar- IVD for the isolation and cultivation of Neisseria species.

Boxes contain a reduced concentration of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide and does not provide enough of the blood factors necessary to support Haemophilus growth. The reduction could cause a false negative result for Haemophilus isolation in a clinical specimen.

BD BBL Martin-Lewis Agar, 100 Ea - Product Usage: used for the isolation of pathogenic Neisseria from specimens containing mixed flora of bacteria and fungi.

Products show heavy growth of C. albicans after 24 hours of incubation due to misformulation (expected reaction is partial inhibition after 18-48 hours incubation) and reduce the identification of Neisseria contributing to a delay in time to definitive diagnosis or a delay in proper treatment

BD BBL GC-Lect Agar; Cat. No. 297715

A portion of this lot was manufactured using Gentamicin instead of Vancomycin. Gentamicin is an inhibitory agent of Neisseria organisms. This product is a selective plated medium to provide enhanced growth and recovery of N gonorrhoeae. Inhibited growth may cause a false negative result or a delayed result leading to incorrect or delayed treatment.
