Biomed InTray® m-Endo LES culture media for coliform diagnostics

InTray® m-Endo LES - Prepared Plated Culture Media

InTray™ total coliform test utilizes a selective indicator medium (m-Endo LES) for use in presumptive identification and enumeration of Coliform colonies in water samples.

This media is specified by both the APHA and the US EPA for the detection of total Coliforms. The device is designed to interface directly with standard methods for bacterial testing of water samples using the Membrane Filter (MF) Technique.

Specifications

Product Principle

Combine collection, culture, result and microscopic observation in one IVD device.
Highly selective prepared media in a device designed for in-vitro specimen transport and incubation.
Rapid presumptive-positive diagnosis without re-plating. Intray can be placed directly on microscope stage
Fully enclosed cassette with Tyvek® air filtration prevents contamination and exposure, post-collection.

Simple Convenience

The InTray is designed for specimen collection/ inoculation at point-of-care
Saves time, material cost and waste, reducing exposure to collected sample
Place directly on the microscope tray for observation through the cassette’s clear anti-fog window
Selectively produces distinctive colony growth with typical identifiable morphology

Accurate Detection

Specially formulated medium promotes growth and chromogenic differentiation for a variety of Salmonella serotypes.

Test Strain	Colony Appearance
