Thermo Scientific™ Bile Esculin Agar

Description

Isolate and differentiate enterococci/Group D streptococci and non Group D streptococci using Thermo Scientific™ Bile Esculin Agar, a selective microbiological medium.

Enterococci / Group D streptococci hydrolyse aesculin to form aesculetin and dextrose. Aesculetin combines with ferric citrate in the medium to form a dark brown or black complex which is indicative of a positive result. Bile salts will inhibit Gram-positive bacteria other than enterococci / Group D streptococci.
