Description

Description

Presumptively detect, isolate and enumerate pathogenic staphylococci in milk, food, fish and other specimens while most other bacteria are inhibited, except a few halophilic species, with Thermo Scientific™ Mannitol Salt Agar. Look for colonies surrounded by bright yellow zones to recognize coagulase-positive staphylococci; non-pathogenic staphylococci produce colonies with reddish purple zones.

Clearly and easily differentiate Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis while most other bacteria is inhibited by the high salt concentration.

Staphylococcus aureus is a coagulase-positive, catalase-positive, gram-positive cocci that occurs singly or in pairs, tetrads, short chains, and grape-like clusters. It is commonly carried on the skin and in the nose of healthy individuals but is also a major cause of infection in both healthcare and community settings worldwide. S. aureus can produce a variety of syndromes with clinical manifestations, including
skin and soft tissue infections, empyema, bloodstream infections, pneumonia, osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, endocarditis, sepsis, and meningitis.
