I need control isolates to perform a new media for isolation of Enterobacteriaceae-producing OXA-48. I need isolates producing ESBLs, pAmpC, hyperproduction of AmpC, carbapenemase-producing isolates...
chromID CARBA and chromID OXA-48 are two chromogenic media that have been commercialized for the isolation of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE). Both media were evaluated alongside a broth enrichment method recommended by the CDC for isolation of CPE. chromID OXA-48 is a highly useful medium but using a combination of methods is optimal for adequate detection.
