  • Bile Esculin Agar
    BILE ESCULIN AGAR INTENDED USE Remel Bile Esculin Agar is a solid medium recommended for use in qualitative procedures for the presumptive identification of group D streptococci and enterococci. SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION Rochaix first demonstrated the value of esculin hydrolysis for identification of enterococci.1 Meyer et al. found that 61 of 62 strains of enterococci hydrolyzed esculin in a medium containing bile.2 Swan determined that positive results obtained on esculin agar containing 40% bile correlated well with serologically confirmed group D streptococci.3 Using Swan’s formula, Facklam and Moody tested over 700 strains of streptococci and enterococci representing all known serological groups and found all strains to be bile-resistant and esculin-positive. PRINCIPLE Group D streptococci and enterococci hydrolyze esculin in the presence of bile to form esculetin and dextrose. Esculetin reacts with ferric ions supplied by ferric ammonium citrate to form brown-black colonies on Bile Esculin Agar. Oxgall in a concentration of 4% (equivalent to 40% bile) inhibits most strains of streptococci and enterococci other than group D.

  • Bile Esculin Agar Intended Use Bile Esculin Agar Is A
    Bile Esculin Agar Intended Use Bile Esculin Agar is a differential medium used for isolation and presumptive identification of group D Streptococci / Enterococci from food samples. Summary Swan formulated Bile Esculin Agar for the isolation and identification of group D Streptococci from foods. Originally, Bile Esculin Test was used for the identification of Enterococci. However, since group D Streptococci share the test with Enterococci, it is advisable that other tests such as salt tolerance be performed while identifying Enterococci. Meyer and Schonfeld showed that majority of Enterococci were able to grow in esculin and split it, while other Streptococci could not. This medium is used to differentiate Enterococci and Streptococcus bovis from other Streptococci. Principle Oxgall inhibits gram-positive bacteria other than group D Streptococci / Enterococci. Ferric citrate is an indicator of esculin hydrolysis and resulting esculetin formation. Enterococci / group D Streptococci hydrolyze the glycoside esculin to esculetin and dextrose. Esculetin reacts with ferric citrate producing brownish black complex. This medium is also shown to aid differentiation of genus Klebsiella-Enterobacter-Serratia from other Enterobacteriaceae on the basis of esculin hydrolysis. Formula* Ingredients g/L Pancreatic Digest of Gelatin 5.0 Beef Extract 3.0 Oxgall 40.0 Ferric Citrate 0.5 Esculin 1.0 Agar 15.0 Final pH (at 25°C) 6.6 ± 0.2 *Adjusted to suit performance parameters Storage and Stability Store dehydrated medium below 30°C in tightly closed container and the prepared medium at 2ºC-8°C. Avoid freezing and overheating. Use before expiry date on the label. Once opened keep powdered medium closed to avoid hydration.

  • Bile Esculin Azide Agar (ISO 7899-2:2000) (Dehydrated Culture Media) for Microbiology
    PRODUCT CODE: 415523 Bile Esculin Azide Agar (ISO 7899-2:2000) (Dehydrated Culture Media) for microbiology Preparation Suspend 56.6 grams of the medium in one litre of distilled water. Mix well and dissolve by heating with frequent agitation. Boil for one minute until complete dissolution. Dispense into appropriate containers and sterilize in autoclave at 121ºC for 15 minutes. Overheating can cause darkening of the medium. If tubes are used, allow cooling in a slanted position. The prepared medium should be stored at 8-15°C. The colour is tournasol. The dehydrated medium should be homogeneous, free-flowing and toasted in colour. If there are any physical changes, discard the medium. Caution: This medium is toxic if swallowed, inhaled or comes into contact with skin. Wear gloves and eye/face protection. Uses BILE ESCULIN AZIDE AGAR is a modification of Bile Esculin Agar with the addition of sodium azide as an inhibitor and with the reduction of the bile concentration. The resulting medium is more selective but still provides rapid growth and efficient recovery of enterococci. The ability to hydrolyse esculin in the presence of bile is a characteristic of enterococci. Organisms positive for esculin hydrolysis hydrolyse the glycoside esculin to esculetin and dextrose. The esculetin reacts with the Ferric citrate to form a dark brown or black colony. Ox bile does not inhibit enterococci while other Gram-positive bacteria are inhibited. Sodium azide inhibits Gram negative bacteria. Tryptone, Peptone and Yeast extract supply the nutrients essential for growth. Sodium chloride provides the osmotic balance. Bacteriological agar is the solidifying agent.

  • APPENDIX a Media and Reagents
    APPENDIX A Media and Reagents Pauline K. w. Yu, M.S. The use of appropriate and dependable media is integral to the isolation and identification of microorganisms. Unfortunately, comparative data docu­ menting the relative efficacy or value of media designed for similar purposes are often lacking. Moreover, one cannot presume identity in composition of a given generic product which is manufactured by several companies because each may supplement the generic products with components, often of a proprietary nature and not specified in the product's labeling. Finally, the actual production of similar products may vary among manufacturers to a sufficient extent to affect their performance. For all of these reasons, therefore, product selection for the laboratory should not be strictly based on cost considerations and should certainly not be based on promotional materials. Evaluations that have been published in the scientific literature should be consulted when available. Alternatively, the prospective buyer should consult a recognized authority in the field. It is seldom necessary for the laboratory to prepare media using basic components since these are usually available combined in dehydrated form from commercial sources; however, knowledge of a medium's basic compo­ nents is helpful in understanding how the medium works and what might be wrong when it does not work. Hence, the components have been listed for each medium included in this chapter. All dehydrated media must be prepared exactly according to the manu­ facturers' directions. Any deviation from these directions may adversely affect or significantly alter a medium's performance. Containers of media should be dated on receipt and when opened, and the media should never be used beyond expiration dates specified by the manufacturers or recom­ mended by quality control programs.

  • Bile Esculin Agar Base M340
    Bile Esculin Agar Base M340 Bile Esculin Agar Base is a differential medium recommended for isolation and presumptive identification of group D Streptococci from food and pharmaceutical products. Composition** Ingredients Gms / Litre Peptone 5.000 Meat extract B # 3.000 Bile 40.000 Ferric citrate 0.500 Agar 15.000 Final pH ( at 25°C) 6.6±0.2 **Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters # Equivalent to Beef extract Directions Suspend 31.75 grams in 500 ml distilled water. Heat to boiling to dissolve the medium completely. Cool to 45-50°C.Add rehydrated contents of 1 vial of Esculin (FD050). Mix and dispense into tubes or flasks as desired. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Allow the tubed medium to solidify in slanted position. Principle And Interpretation Group D Streptococci possess the group D lipoteichoic acid antigen in their cell walls. Former Group D species, which are predominant normal inhabitants of the human gastrointestinal tract, are termed as faecal Streptococci or Enterococci (1). The unique ability of Enterococci to split esculin was reported by Meyer and Schonfeld (2). Enterococci and Group D Streptococci hydrolyse esculin to esculetin and dextrose, which reacts with ferric citrate producing brownish black precipitate (3). The use of esculin hydrolysis in identification of Enterococci was first cited by Rochaix (4). Bile Esculin Agar was originally formulated by Swan (6) for the isolation and identification of Group D Streptococci from food. Facklam and Moody (7, 8) further reported that using Bile Esculin Agar, Group D Streptococci could be differentiated from non Group D Streptococci.

  • Bile Esculin Agar, Product Information
    BILE ESCULIN AGAR (7249) Intended Use Bile Esculin Agar is used for the selective isolation and differentiation of group D streptococci in a laboratory setting. Bile Esculin Agar is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans. Product Summary and Explanation Bile Esculin Agar is based on the formulation described by Swan and further evaluated by Facklam and Moody.1,2 Rochaix first noted the value of esculin hydrolysis in the identification of enterococcci.3 Meyer and Schonfeld added bile to the esculin medium and demonstrated 61 of 62 enterococci strains were able to grow and hydrolyze esculin, while other streptococci could not. 4 Molecular taxonomic studies of the genus Streptococcus have placed enterococci, previously described as group D streptococci, in the genus Enterococcus.5 The ability to hydrolyze esculin in the presence of bile is a characteristic of enterococci and group D streptococci. Swan compared the use of an esculin medium containing 40% bile salts with the Lancefield serological method of grouping,1 and reported that a positive reaction on the bile esculin medium correlated with a serological group D precipitin reaction. Facklam and Moody found that the bile esculin test provided a reliable means of identifying group D streptococci and differentiating them from non-group D streptococci. 2 Bile Esculin Agar is in standard procedures for the microbiological examination of food products.6-8 Principles of the Procedure Organisms positive for esculin hydrolysis hydrolyze the esculin to esculetin and dextrose. The esculetin reacts with the ferric citrate to form a dark brown or black complex.
