Voges-Proskauer A Reagent, pack of 2

Buy Voges-Proskauer A Reagent Pack of 2 from Tristains.

The VP Reagent A solution is a key component of the Voges-Proskauer test, a microbiological test used to identify acetoin production through bacterial fermentation. This solution typically consists of an aqueous solution with α-naphthol or 1-naphthol as the primary active ingredient, with a concentration of approximately 5-6%. The solution is characterized by its reddish-pink to purple color, and it plays a critical role in the detection process of acetoin production in bacteria.

TriStains series products are carefully tested to ensure accurate, reliable, and reproducible results. Our products are available in different packaging sizes to allow you to get all types of stains & Indicators for your specific purposes from a single source.

Application :

• The VP Reagent A solution is used in the Voges-Proskauer test, which is a biochemical test used to detect the production of acetoin (a neutral end-product of glucose fermentation) by certain bacteria.
• When combined with the VP Reagent B solution and a positive test sample, the VP Reagent A solution helps to produce a characteristic color change, indicating a positive Voges-Proskauer test result.
• The test is commonly used in the identification and differentiation of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, particularly in the Enterobacteriaceae family. It is used to identify organisms that produce acetoin during glucose fermentation.

Benefits :

• The VP Reagent A solution, together with the VP Reagent B solution, enables the reliable detection of acetoin production, which is an important characteristic for the identification of certain bacterial species
• Gives rapid results and also cost-effective
• Provides valuable information for the accurate identification and classification of bacterial isolates in microbiological laboratories and research settings
