Please note: This product is a custom pour, and not stocked regularly. Please call for more information.
XLT4 allows for simultaneous growth and observation of non-typhi Salmonella from samples contaminated with fecal matter. The InTray XLT4 improves efficiency by inhibiting other contaminated fecal bacteria such as Proteus, Providencia and Pseuodomonas – which can lead to overgrowth. XLT4 agar demonstrates improved growth of non-typhi Salmonella species from specimens collected using environmental drag swabs. It has shown sensitivity comparable to Hektoen enteric agar with nearly 100% specificity when used to isolate non-typhi Salmonella from stool samples.
