Description

Strep-A-Chek™ Kit is intended for use in the detection of pyrrolidonyl arylamidase (PYR) from beta-hemolytic colonies grown on blood agar plates, as an aid in the presumptive identification of Group A Streptococcus. Strep-A-Chek™ consists of Strep-A-Chek™ Reagent Strips impregnated with a chromogenic substrate for the detection of pyrrolidonyl arylamidase (PYR), an enzyme reported to be present in Group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus, and EY-20™ Reagent Tubes which contain a diazo dye color developer, Fast Garnet. The PYR enzyme has been shown to be accurate in differentiating Group A streptococci and enterococci from other Streptococcus species. Strep-A-Chek™ Kit when used in conjunction with other tests such as CAMP, hippurate, and bile-esculin, may be used for the presumptive identification of beta-hemolytic streptococci or enterococci from any source.
