-
Harlequin CSA-DFI also uses alpha-glucosidase activity to differentiate C sakazakii strains from other members of the Enterobacteriaceae.
-
The production of alpha-glucosidase by the pathogen results in hydrolysis of the chromogenic substrate and the formation of green colonies, with other Enterobacteriaceae appearing colourless.
