Description
• Intended Use: Cetrimide Agar is used in the isolation and identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
• Product Summary: Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces a number of water-soluble pigments, including the yellow-green or
yellow-brown fluorescent pigment pyoverdin (fluorescein). When pyoverdin combines with the blue water-soluble pigment
pyocyanin, the bright green color characteristic of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is created. Agar containing Cetrimide has been used
successfully to isolate Pseudomononas aeruginosa from contaminated specimens.
