MYCOFAST U.S. has been designed for the detection, identification, and enumeration of Ureaplasma urealiticum (U.u.) and Mycoplasma hominis (M.h.) in endocervical, urethral, urinary, gastric,and sperm specimens.

Results from the MYCOFAST U.S. test are comprehensive. Wells 1-3 enumerate for U.u. between 10³ and ≥10⁵ CCU/mL. Wells 4-6 for the identification of U.u. and M.h. via resistance profiles to Lincomycin (L), Trimethoprim /Sulfamethoxazole (SXT) and Erythromycin (E). Well 7 enumerates for M.h. (≥10⁴ CCU/mL).

Using an "all liquid" method, MYCOFAST U.S. identifies U.u. and M.h. growth after 24-hours of incubation. During growth, U.u. and M.h. metabolize urea and arginine resulting in a color change of the medium. This color change is due to liberation of ammonia resulting in an alkaline pH of the medium.

Reading the results couldn’t be easier.

Yellow = Negative     Pink = Positive

This test is easy to use and cost effective for all laboratories. Contact us now to set up a free in-lab demonstration.

Each microplate is divisible allowing for single or multiple sample testing.

MYCOFAST U.S. provides SENSITIVE, SPECIFIC, AND RAPID results in a complete kit.

Each kit includes 30 tests:

UMMt: Liquid medium for sample transport.

UMMlyo: Lyophilized growth medium for better stability. To be reconstituted in the laboratory with the inoculated UMMt.

M.h. Supplement: Growth activator for M. hominis detection within 24 hours.

MYCOFAST U.S. tray: Divisible tray (2 x 10 wells).
