HardyCHROM Candida

HC Candida

Chromogenic Media for Candida Identification

Hardy's chromogenic culture media for the speciation of Candida will give you the answers you need in 24 to 48 hours.

  • Candida albicans - green, smooth
  • Candida krusei - pink, rough
  • Candida tropicalis - blue, smooth
  • Candida glabrata - pink, smooth

Note: Yeast species other than C. glabrata will also appear pink and smooth, which is why additional confirmatory testing is needed. Please see our GlabrataQuick confirmation test below.

GlabrataQuick

____________________

Here's an easy and reliable way to confirm your identifications for Candida glabrata.

Get results in as little as one hour!

Glabrata
C. glabrata will ferment Trehalose, but not Maltose or Sucrose.

non-glabrata
The additional sugars (sucrose and maltose) are added in order to reduce the chance of false positives, thus increasing the specificity of your results.

Chromogenic media for yeast cannot positively identify C. glabrata, since other species of yeast will have the same appearance. Now there's a simple way to be sure!

"Ability is a poor man's wealth."

"Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are."

"Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."

"Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be."

If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?

"If you're not making mistakes, then you're not doing anything."

"It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen."

"It's what you learn after you know it all that counts."

"Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters."

"Never mistake activity for achievement."

"Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts."

"Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful."

Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.
