Product Spotlight
BluEcoli™ Urine Biplate is a urine culture media, consisting of Blood Agar on one side and BluEcoli™ Agar on the other side, which is used for the isolation of urinary pathogens and for the identification of E. coli
A revolutionary agar bi-plate for screening urine specimens for E. coli, which causes about 85% of all urinary tract infections (UTI)
Blood Agar (side 1) is recommended as a primary plating medium when culturing urine specimens
BluEcoli™ (side 2) is a urine culture medium used for the culture and isolation of urinary pathogens and for the identification of E. coli which turns blue within 24 hours by using chromogenic substrates
Inoculate both sides of the biplate with the urine specimen. If the infecting organism is E. coli, the colonies on the chromogenic side of the biplate will turn blue
With the BluEcoli™ Urine Biplate, you can select a colony from the blood agar side of the biplate for susceptibility testing
