Maintain and transport Legionella cultures with confidence using Hardy Diagnostics Buffered Charcoal Yeast Extract (BCYE) Agar Slant Tubes, the specialized tube format medium designed for the cultivation and primary isolation of Legionella species from water systems, cooling towers, and environmental samples suspected of harboring these fastidious bacteria. The slant tube configuration provides an extended surface area for streak inoculation, subculturing, and organism maintenance, making it an essential format for Legionella reference culture preservation, organism transfers, and laboratory workflows requiring individual tube-based cultivation of this critical waterborne pathogen.
Supplied in optically clear glass tubes made from clarified glass for excellent visibility of characteristic Legionella colony morphology, these 20 mm x 125 mm tubes feature flat bottoms for stability when set on end and leak-proof caps that provide security during handling and transportation. The BCYE formulation provides the precise nutrient requirements including L-Cysteine and buffering capacity essential for supporting Legionella growth, while the convenient tube format offers space-efficient storage and simplified handling compared to plates for applications requiring individual sample cultivation, culture preservation, or organism transport between laboratories.
