Alpha-glucosidase reagent
By conducting the α-glucosidase test, it is possible to differentiate between the genera Bacteroides and Fusobacterium!
This product is a simple enzyme reaction reagent that can differentiate between the genera Bacteroides and Fusobacterium. Positive bacterial species include Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Parabacteroides distasonis, Phocaeicola vulgatus, and Prevotella bivia. Negative bacterial species include Porphyromonas asaccharolytica, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Bilophila wadsworthia, and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. 【Instructions for Use (Using Microtubes)】 1. Add 20-50 μl of sterile water to the microtube. 2. Use a toothpick or similar tool to take an appropriate amount of colony and suspend it to create a concentrated bacterial solution. 3. Add an equal amount of α-glucosidase reagent to the suspension and mix. 4. Incubate at 35°C to 37°C for 10 to 15 minutes. 5. Shine UV light to check for fluorescence (blue-white) presence. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
