Since 1935, BD BBL prepared media products have been trusted by microbiology laboratory professionals due to a high level of quality and performance. BD BBL™ prepared plated media enable the isolation of microorganisms from samples or specimens. Ready for immediate use, routinely available in several types of Petri-style dishes, containing a variety of media.
BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ Staph aureus is a selective medium for the isolation, enumeration, and identification of Staphylococcus aureus from clinical and food sources. The growth of mauve-colored colonies at 24 hours is considered positive for S. aureus for clinical specimens requiring no further confirmatory testing. CHROMagar Staph aureus has been validated by the AOAC™ Research Institute under the Performance Testing Methods for…
BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ MRSA II is designed for the qualitative, direct detection of nasal colonization by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
BD has combined two products to formulate the BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ MRSAII/CHROMagar™ SA Bi-plate. This product is used for the qualitative direct detection of nasal colonization by methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and as a selective medium for the isolation, enumeration, and identification of S. aureus.
BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ Orientation medium is a non-selective, differential medium for presumptively identifying bacterial isolates from primary plating media. Specially selected peptones supply the nutrients in BD BBL™ CHROMagar Orientation medium. The chromogen mix consists of artificial substrates (chromogens) that release differently colored compounds upon degradation by specific microbial enzymes, thus assuring the direct dif…
BD has combined two products to formulate the BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ Orientation / TSA II I Plate™ for urine cultures. As today’s laboratories are challenged to do more with less, this format standardizes urine culture processing to a single catalog number. The I Plate allows for the visual identification of common urinary pathogens helping to improve turnaround time for positives.
BD BBL™ CHROMagar™ Candida medium is a selective and differential medium for presumptively identifying members of the genus Candida from a primary isolation plate. Due to the differences in morphology and colors of the yeast colonies, this medium is particularly useful in the detection of mixed yeast cultures in specimens. Colonies of C. albicans appear light to medium green, C. tropicalis colonies appear light blue to metall…

The BD Difco™ and BD BBL™ brands have been providing high quality dehydrated culture media (DCM) for use in quality control testing in a variety of applications within the pharmaceutical/biotech, food, dairy, beverage and personal care industries, as well as in academic institutions. BD offers more than 400 DCM formulations and packaging sizes to meet a variety of testing and manufacturing requirements.
BD BBL™ prepared tubed media offer a variety of media types and fill volumes to fit your needs. Tubes are borosilicate glass with black screw caps securely fitted to prevent loss of moisture. A special resilient rubber liner is affixed inside each cap with a unique adhesive that resists displacement even during autoclaving. Larger tubes permit easy inoculation or streaking of media. Prepared slanted media are supplied in tube…
The BD® ESwab™ Collection and Transport System is designed for the transport of clinical specimens containing aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious bacteria from the collection site to the testing laboratory.
Advanced technology for both liquid and non-liquid sample processing. Powered by BD Synapsys™ informatics solution, the BD Kiestra™ InoqulA delivers workflow efficiency, accuracy, and standardization enabling fast time to results and cost savings compared to loop-based methods.
Powered by BD Synapsys™ microbiology informatics solution, the BD Kiestra™ ReadA intelligent incubation and imaging system provides closed-door incubation and high throughput imaging, delivering accuracy through standardized digital image acquisition.
A selective and differential medium for the isolation and presumptive identification of Salmonella species from stool with a highly specific chromogenic reaction.
For detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE)
BBL CHROMagar ESBL biplate is a chromogenic selective screening medium for the detection of Enterobacteriaceae-producing, extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs):
BD sterile Isolator Cleanroom eXtended Temperature (IC-XT) plated media with a validated SAL of 10-6 offer flexibility and sample integrity to meet today's environmental monitoring needs.
