Detect microbial deoxyribonuclease enzymes, particularly from staphylococci, with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ DNASE Agar (Dehydrated). A DNase (deoxyribonuclease) is any enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of phosphodiester linkages of DNA leading to its degradation. The organisms producing DNase enzymes in sufficient quantities to hydrolyze DNA will show clear zones around the colonies. The medium is mainly used in the identification of staphylococci but may also be used for the detection of DNase activity in other organisms.
