CLED Agar (500g)

CLED Agar (500g) Highlights

• Selective Culture Medium: CLED Agar is a selective and differential culture medium used for the isolation of urinary tract pathogens. It is particularly effective for growing bacteria from urine samples.
• Prevents Swarming: This medium contains cystine lactose electrolyte deficient components. These elements help to prevent the swarming of Proteus species, allowing for easier isolation of other bacteria.
• Differential Properties: CLED Agar differentiates between lactose fermenting and non-lactose fermenting bacteria. Lactose fermenters typically produce colored colonies, while non-fermenters produce colorless colonies.
• General Laboratory Use: It is a widely used medium in clinical microbiology laboratories for routine urine culture. Its formulation supports the growth of a broad range of common urinary pathogens.
• Storage and Stability: Prepared CLED Agar plates should be stored refrigerated at 2-8°C and protected from light. Unused dehydrated media should be stored in a cool, dry place.
