RambaQUICK™ Salmonella Method: Rapid and Simple !
The RambaQUICK™ Salmonella method was designed with the aim of simplifying the test procedure while maintaining a high level of sensitivity within a conventional culture methodology.
1. 2 en 1 Enrichment step : The RambaQUICK™ selective broth is a combination of the best functions found in each of both conventional enrichments, the RVs and the MKTTn broths. After the revivification phase in BPW, the Salmonella replicates at the exponential growth phase in the optimized RambaQUICK™ Salmonella broth, which offers not only a highly nutrient environment but also inhibits the growth of competitive flora.
4. Meets ISO 6579 requirements : by detecting lactose positive Salmonella in intense colour on CHROMagar™ Salmonella Plus.
