Over recent years, an increasing number of hospitals have been infected by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Unfortunately, current media continues to produce unreliable results in the detection of MRSA, especially with the ever-increasingly frequent low-level resistant MRSA. CHROMagar MRSA, a revolutionary product that is proving to be a major breakthrough in detecting hospital patients carrying and spreading MRSA. Having a sensitivity-level and a specificity-level of close to one hundred percent (100%), CHROMagar MRSA easily detects MRSA including low level resistant strains in mauve colonies after only 24 hours of isolation. With such ease and accuracy, CHROMagar MRSA will be an essential medium used to further eradicate MRSA from hospitals."
