bacterial species.
Due to the unique colors produced, no further testing
is needed to identify Candida albicans, Candida
tropicalis, and Candida krusei.
• Candida albicans produces smooth, creamy,
green colonies.
• Candida tropicalis produces blue colonies with a
blue halo.
• Candida glabrata produces smooth, creamy, pink
colonies, often with a darker mauve center. Further
testing, such as Rapid Trehalose Fermentation Broth,
Cat. no. Z205, is needed for confirmation.
• Candida krusei produces rough, spreading,

*US Patent No. 8,313,938 B1 and US Patent No. 8,518,688 B1
Advantages of Strep B Carrot Broth™
• Easy read-out. If an orange to red color develops, Strep B is present.
• Positive results can be reported in as early as 6 hours after inoculation.
• For positives, there is no need for further subculturing or testing.
• Lower cost when compared to the LIM Broth method.
• Proven - Visit our web sight to review the scientific studies on Carrot Broth™.
• Carrot Broth™ was found to be more sensitive than the LIM Broth, Granada Agar
Plate methods*, and even PCR!**
• Negative cultures from Strep B Carrot Broth™ can be subbed to a GBS Detect
Plate, Cat. no. A300, to easily find non-hemolytic strains of GBS.
• Can be used with most liquid and gel-based transport systems.
• Positive cultures can be held at room temperature for up to 13 days in case
susceptibility tests are ordered.
"It's no secret that my favorite Hardy product is the combination of the
Carrot Broth and the GBS Detect Agar. I feel so confident that we
do not miss any Group B Streptococcus on our OB/Gyn patients.
I brag about it constantly to anyone who will listen..."
