Cystine Lactose Electrolyte Deficient Single Indicator (CLED SI) Agar is based on Mackey and Sandys formulation and is popular for culturing urine specimens in the clinical laboratory.
The reduced number of electrolyte level prevents swarming of Proteus spp.The peptone and beef extract is the source of the required nitrogen, carbon and vitamins. Lactose is a carbohydrate.
The inclusion of bromothymol blue as a pH indicator allows easy differentiation of lactose and non-lactose fermenting organisms.
L-Cystine is also present to benefit those organisms that have a particular cystine requirement.
Used for culturing urine specimens in the clinical laboratory.
