Engineered to maintain reliability in process-driven workflows, O’Meara’S Reagent serves as an essential component in the Voges-Proskauer test (VP test), a critical tool for determining the intermediate product acetoin formed during butanediol fermentation in microbiological analysis. This reagent's unique formulation, featuring creatine and a high concentration of potassium hydroxide, creates an optimal alkaline environment for the test. With a density of 1,171 g/cm³ and suitable storage between +15 to +25°C, O’Meara’S Reagent ensures consistent results in your laboratory, contributing significantly to the accurate identification and classification of bacteria, particularly those within the Enterobacteriaceae group.
