Detect protozoan cysts and helminth eggs and larvae in wet mount preparations using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ D'Antoni's Iodine stain. This is a nonspecific, contrast dye, added to fresh, unpreserved fecal specimens to aid in detection of helminth eggs and larvae and in differentiating protozoan...
Remel Chemstrip LN Reagent Strips are used to screen negative urine specimens.
Remel Chemstrip 9 are test strips used for urine testing, including leukocytes, nitrite, pH, protein, glucose, ketone, urobilinogen, bilirubin and blood.
Determine the ability of an organism to reduce nitrate to nitrite or free nitrogen gas using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ BactiDrop™ Nitrate Reagent A. This ability is characteristic of the Enterobacteriaceae1 family.
Prepare clinical specimens for microscopic examination of fungal elements with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ BactiDrop™ Potassium Hydroxide.The Laboratory Handbook of Medical Mycology recommends the use of 10% KOH for rapid detection of fungal elements1.
Remel BactiDrop Ehrlich's Indole is used for detection of the tryptophan enzyme.
Determine the ability of gram-negative bacilli to produce acetylmethylcarbinol (acetoin) from glucose fermentation using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Bactidrop™ Voges-Proskauer A Test. In 1898, Voges and Proskauer reported production of acetylmethylcarbinol from glucose fermentation by certain bacteria...
Detect cytochrome oxidase enzyme with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ BactiDrop™ Oxidase. The oxidase test was originally devised to identify Neisseria species, but later was used to separate the Pseudomonadaceae from the oxidase-negative Enterobacteriaceae1,2.
Determine the ability of an organism to reduce nitrate to nitrite or free nitrogen gas using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ BactiDrop™ Nitrate Reagent B. This ability is characteristic of the Enterobacteriaceae1 family.
Digest and decontaminate clinical specimens prior to inoculation of media for isolating Mycobacterium species using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Oxalic Acid reagent. In 1930, Corper and Uyei described an oxalic acid procedure prior to inoculation of media for digestion and decontamination of clinical...
Thermo Scientific™ Remel Anaerobic Nitrate Reagent B is for determination of nitrate reduction in anaerobic bacteria.
Thermo Scientific™ Remel Mineral Oil is for biochemical test procedures requiring oil overlay.
Determine the ability of an organism to split indole from tryptophan molecule with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Kovac's Indole Reagent.Previously xylene was used to detect small amounts of indole produced from breakdown of tryptophan.
Detect phenylalanine deamination with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Ferric Chloride.Henriksen and Closs reported Proteus could be differentiated from other enteric gram-negative bacilli based on the ability to deaminate phenylalanine into phenylpyruvic acid1-3.
Thermo Scientific™ Remel Brom Cresol Purple Aqueous is a pH indicator for use with microbiological culture media.
