A robust, simple solution for sealing & disposing of all 96 extraction tubes
For selective isolation and culture of Staphylococcus aureus.
Peptone and beef extract powder provides carbon, nitrogen, vitamins and minerals; D- mannitol to fermentable sugars; higher levels of sodium chloride to provide a higher osmotic pressure, suppress most non-staphylococcal microorganisms ; phenolsulfonphthalein as pH indicator; agar is medium coagulant. Typical pathogenic staphylococci (coagulase positive) D- mannitol produce acid fermentation and produce yellow colonies with a yellow halo, typically non-pathogenic Staphylococcus unfermented D- mannitol to form red colonies.

p504s, also known as α-methylacyl coenzyme A racemase (AMACR), is an enzyme localized in the peroxisome and mitochondria, which functions in β-oxidation of branched chain fatty acids, as well as bile synthesis. AMACR has been clinically indicated as a tissue biomarker for prostate cancer and colorectal cancer, as well as high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia, a precursor lesion of prostate cancer. p504s overexpression has also been detected in a number of other cancers including ovarian, breast, bladder, lung, and renal cell carcinomas, lymphoma, and melanoma.
Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the utter is mainly caused by bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus is often considered the most common cause of contagious mastitis in dairy herds. S. aureus infection is estimated to be present in up to 90% of dairy farms and is responsible for 35% of the economic loss in the dairy industry (Lee et al., 2005). S. aureus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. The majority of S. aureus strains are catalase-positive and coagulasepositive, which forms the basis of traditional identification methodology.
