Yeast - InTray™ Colorex™ Yeast

Yeasts are a group of fungi that can colonize many sites on a living host. Candida are yeasts that exist for the most part in a unicellular form. Yeasts are commonly carried by humans, pets (both warm and cold blooded), insects, aquatic habitats, a variety of plants, and soil. They may be the source of recurring infections. BioMed Diagnostics' InTrayTM ColorexTM Yeast provides the simultaneous detection and presumptive identification of yeast species.
