Chromogenic UTI Agar is supplied by TM Media. The Chromogenic UTI Agar medium is a type of agar that can differentiate between the primary pathogens responsible for urinary tract infections. The Chromogenic UTI Agar contains two chromogenic substrates that can be broken down by enzymes produced by Enterococcus spp., Escherichia coli, and coliforms. It also contains tryptophan, which can detect Proteus spp. by indicating the presence of tryptophan deaminase activity (TDA). The medium is based on Cystine Lactose Electrolyte Deficient (CLED) Medium, which is non-inhibitory and useful for diagnosing other urinary organisms while preventing Proteus spp. from swarming. The chromogen X-glucoside targets -glucosidase enzyme activity and can specifically identify enterococci by forming blue colonies.
