Oxoid has announced that its agar for identifying Bacillus cereus (B cereus) can accurately test food and beverages for this micro-organism.
Brilliance Bacillus cereus Agar allows food microbiologists in manufacturing companies and research laboratories to significantly improve the detection and recovery of B cereus.
B cereus is quickly isolated, appearing as coloured colonies for precise identification.
Food manufacturers can rapidly extract B cereus if present, investigate the cause of the contamination and, if necessary, alert consumers.
