Intended Use
For the selective separation and enumeration of enterococci in food and water.
Principle and Interpretation
Tryptone and peptone are the sources of nitrogen and essential growth factors. Yeast extract acts as well nitrogenous compounds and additionally the vitamin B12 complex. Sodium azide acts largely inhibits the growth of gram-negative bacteria while sparing enterococci, staphylococci and streptococci. Ox bile inhibits most gram positives but not enterococci. Enterococci hydrolyse esculin to esculetin and dextrose, which reacts with ferric citrate producing a brownish black precipitate around the colonies. Tolerance to bile and the ability to hydrolyze esculin is the traditional and reliable test for the identification of enterococci. (4). Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance of the medium and Agar is the solidifying agent.

The Permagen ring magnet low elution plate with integrated cushion base plate was designed for use in automation applications where volumes as low as 5 µL are required. Most PCR plates are bent, leading to inconsistent lab results. Unlike most products, we have added an angled frame around the top of our plate, this helps with two things, straightening out the PCR plate, and leading it to the proper location on the magnets during automation while the cushion assist compensates for labware inconsistencies.
SBS SLAS Footprint (127.75mm x 85.50mm) to fit into any automated liquid handling robot
Features include solid aluminum alloy construction and hard coat anodized finish for years of trouble-free use, and compatible with any magnetic beads
RLE500R
Maximum – 150 µL
Minimum – 5 µL

Propargyl-PEG4-acid is a PEG reagent with an alkyne and a terminal carboxylic acid. The carboxylic acid reacts with primary amine groups with the help of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU). The 4-unit PEG spacer increases hydrophilicity. The alkyne can participate in copper-catalyzed Click Chemistry. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
