The DrySlide™ PYR Kit is a disposable slide-based test designed for the rapid presumptive identification of Group A streptococci and enterococci. Each slide contains the substrate L-pyrrolidonyl-ß-naphthylamide (PYR), which is hydrolyzed by bacteria that produce the enzyme pyrrolidonyl amino peptidase.
When the included DrySlide™ PYR Color Developer (supplied in convenient crush ampules) is added, a vivid color reaction appears in as little as 3 minutes, providing fast and reliable results.
