CIN AGAR (YERSINIA SELECTIVE AGAR BASE)

Yersinia Selective Agar Base with added Yersinia Selective Supplement is used to isolate Y. enterocolitica from clinical and non-clinical specimens. Yersinia enterocolitica is widely distributed in lakes and reservoirs. Epizootic outbreaks of diarrhea, lymphadenopathy, pneumonia and spontaneous abortions occur in various animals. It is the most common species of Yersinia recovered from clinical specimens. Y.enterocolitica is biochemically more active at room temperature than at 37?C
