Listeria innocua (6a) modified from NCTC 11288

UV- Bio TAG, line of reference strains containing green fluorescent Protein (GFP) markers, make it easy to distinguish standard microorganism strain from laboratory control strains. Optimized for highly visible fluorescence, UV- Bio TAG strains provide better stability because the GFP marker is integrated into the chromosome rather than plasmid. Benefits include UV fluorescence for easy QC strain differentiation from potential contaminants, instant-dissolve pellet technology to reduce preparation time, a ready-to-use format that saves time and cost, and simple, economical refrigerated storage.
