PIKA FastOrange® B

PIKA FastOrange culture media are ready-made broth and agar media. No need to sterilise flasks nor to prepare media and can be used pre-PCR. There are four different FastOrange product lines and they all follow the same procedure.

With FastOrange® products, microbiology testing is easy and affordable for everybody: You just add your liquid sample into the delivered flask with enrichment broth. Then keep it at room temperature and watch for color change and visible turbidity/sediment formation. All FastOrange® products can be stored at room temperature so there is no need for a big laboratory, not even for a refrigerator or temperature cabinet.

Lactic acid bacteria Lactobacilli and Pediococci as well as the anaerobes Pectinatus and Megasphaera are easily detected by a color change of the broth from violet to yellow.

Incubation time is 2-3 days with PCR and 3-7 days with visual evaluation.
