The medium is used as an aid in the qualitative determination of GBS colonization in pregnant women. The color change reaction from white to orange is representative of a positive result for presence of hemolytic GBS. Our one-step test is an improvement over conventional methods by increasing sensitivity, decreasing turn-around time, and lowering overall cost. All components are now included in the color change test, so the use of additional tiles is no longer necessary. Positives require no follow up testing! • Easy one-step process! Place sample directly in the tube. Adding tiles is no longer necessary. • Easy read-out. Development of any orange to red color whatsoever, indicates a positive result. • For positives, there is no need for further sub- culturing or testing. • Lower cost when compared to the LIM broth method. • Can be used with liquid and gel-based transport systems. • Carrot Broth media is available in multiple formats that work on many automated inoculating machines, such as the WASP® or BD Innova® 12x80mm plastic tube, compatible with the WASP® System, 100/pk Z44BX 13x100mm tube, 4ml fi ll, 20/pk Z40 16x100mm tube, 6ml fi ll, compatible with BD Innova® 100/pk Z46BX (See GBS Detect Plate, page 25)
