Bile Esculin HiCynth™ Agar is used for differential isolation and presumptive identification of group D Streptococci in food and pharmaceutical products. Group D Streptococci possess the group D lipoteichoic acid antigen in their cell walls. Former Group D species, which are predominant normal inhabitants of the human gastrointestinal tract, are termed as faecal Streptococci or Enterococci. They possess the unique ability to split esculin. Bile Esculin Agar is also shown to aid differentiation of Enterobacteriaceae, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Serratia from other Enterobacteriaceae genera on the basis of esculin hydrolysis. Bile Esculin HiCynth™ Agar is prepared by completely replacing animal or vegetable based peptones with chemically defined peptone to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risks associated with animal peptones.
