ALOA®

Detection of Listeria SPP and Listeria Monocytogenes & Enumeration of Listeria Monocytogenes in food and environmental samples.

• ALOA® is the ISO 11290 mandatory test
• ALOA® One Day (screening), ALOA® Count (enumeration) and ALOA® Confirmation are ISO 16140 validated

Confirmation of Listeria Monocytogenes

• From one single typical colony
• Up to 6 confirmations per plate 
• Simple and cost effective

Confirmation of Listeria SPP

5-hour Protocol: Subculture one presumptive colony and use the Listeria spp confirmation strip

24-hour Protocol: Cost effective method. Inoculation by prick on Palcam plate 

CASA®

Detection and Enumeration of Campylobacter

CASA® is a specific culture medium for the detection and enumeration of thermotolerant Campylobacter in:

• Foodstuffs samples
• Specimen from patients

On the CASA® agar, Campylobacter appear as red colonies in 24 - 48 hours. Other flora are inhibited by high selective reagents.

SMS Simple Method Salmonella

SMS is a simple (1 bag, 1 plate) and rapid (results within 48h) alternative method. It is cost effective with no need for any specific equipment.

• ISO 16140 Validation 
• Release of negative samples in 48 hours
• Easy reading: Clear indication of the presence of Salmonella is given by the change of the gel colour from green to red.
• 2 confirmation methods: 5h +/-1h or 24h +/- 2h protocols

ASAP

Specific Detection of Salmonella

Chromogenic culture medium allowing the isolation of almost all the Salmonella (lactose+, H2S-....).
Its high specificity enables you to avoid numerous confirmations.
Easy reading, compliant with NF EN ISO 6579, (V08-013), NF U 47-100.

ESIA

Comprehensive Method from Enrichment (ESSB Broth) to detection (ESIA agar) of Cronobacter sakazakii

AES CHEMUNEX has developed the ESIA agar for Cronobacter sakazakii (Enterobacter sakazakii) in food samples, especially in milk powders.

ESIA agar allows Cronobacter sakazakii detection within 24 hours.

Typical blue colonies are easy to read.

ESSB broth has been designed to ensure optimal growth of Cronobacter sakazakii inhibiting background flora.

BACARA

Chromogenic Medium for Bacillus Cereus 
Enumeration 
Protocol 1 bag, 1 plate

• High selectivity: no background flora.
• No confirmation needed.
• Incubation 24 hours at 30°C.
• Easy reading: orange colonies with typical halo 

REBECCA

The only chromogenic medium that can enumerate E.coli and enterobacteria on the same plate

• Chromogenic medium for enumeration of enterobacteria and/or E.coli
• ISO 16140 Validation for E.coli/enterobacteria criteria
• No pre-incubation confirmation needed
• Incubate for 24 hours at 37°C (one single temperature incubation)
• Ready-to-use diluents
