Background and principles of chromogenic media
• Chromogen – “a chemical compound, itself without colour, that can be transformed into a coloured compound, or can react with another material to form a coloured compound”

Why use Chromogens?

Why use Chromogens?
• Improve overall specificity of a diagnostic medium.
• Positive colonies are easy to identify.
• Reduce number of sub-cultures required.

Current chromogen situation
• The large scale synthesis of chromogens means compounds are affordable for use in culture media
• There are now chromogenic media available for almost all organisms of interest in both the Industrial and Clinical environments
• >30 chromogenic media formulations are currently available for the differentiation of E. coli and coliforms
• >10 formulations for Salmonella

Background and principles of Inhibigens
• Inhibigen – “an inhibitor molecule linked to a specific substrate. In this bound state, the inhibitor is non-toxic. However, if taken up by a cell and cleaved from the substrate, the Inhibigen molecule will prevent the organism from replicating ”

Why use Inhibigens?

Why use Inhibigens?
• Reduce stress on target organism
• Improve sensitivity
• Reduce growth of non-target organisms

Current Inhibigen Situation
• Inhibigens are a patented concept• Small scale manufacture • Currently only one product containing Inhibigen compounds
• Many more are in the pipeline
