Product Description:

Brilliant Green Agar is a selective culture medium specially designed for the isolation of Salmonella species. The medium contains brilliant green dye, which effectively suppresses the growth of most non-pathogenic organisms while promoting the development of Salmonella species. Its selective properties make Brilliant Green Agar ideal for use in microbiological diagnostic work, particularly in food safety and clinical laboratories. This medium allows for the isolation of Salmonella species by their characteristic morphological appearance and coloration, which differs from that of other bacteria.

Key Features:

– Selective Isolation for Salmonella: Brilliant Green Agar is primarily recommended for isolating Salmonella spp. from a variety of samples.
– Distinctive Colony Morphology: Salmonella colonies are small and appear green against a red (or pink) background, making identification straightforward and efficient.
– Perfect for Food Safety Testing: This agar is a reliable medium for routine testing of food products to check for Salmonella contamination.
– 500g Pack Size: Ideal for medium to large-sized laboratories with ongoing bacteriological testing needs.
– Professional Grade Quality: Formulated with precision to deliver accurate, reproducible results with every test.

Principle of Brilliant Green Agar:

The brilliant green dye in the medium plays a crucial role in selectively inhibiting the growth of most Gram-positive organisms and some Gram-negative bacteria, allowing only Salmonella species to proliferate, particularly Salmonella enterica. The medium is supplemented with sodium chloride and glucose, both of which are vital for the growth of Salmonella. The colonies formed on Brilliant Green Agar exhibit a characteristic green or blue-green coloration, a direct result of the selective inhibitory action of the dye.This medium is essential for laboratories working with a range of clinical, food, and environmental samples. Its discriminatory properties help microbiologists and healthcare professionals quickly and reliably detect Salmonella, ensuring swift identification of this pathogen in various sample types, including food, water, and stool specimens.

Applications of Brilliant Green Agar:

Healthcare and Clinical Laboratories:
Brilliant Green Agar is a valuable diagnostic tool in clinical laboratories, especially when isolating Salmonella from stool samples of patients presenting symptoms of gastrointestinal infections. Early and accurate detection is critical for treating diseases like typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever, which can have severe health consequences if left untreated.

Food Safety Testing:
This agar is a cornerstone in food safety testing, used widely across food industry laboratories to screen meat, poultry, dairy, and produce for Salmonella contamination. Preventing foodborne illness is essential, and this medium ensures that food products are tested regularly during processing, packaging, and storage stages.

Water Testing:
Environmental testing laboratories use Brilliant Green Agar to detect Salmonella in water samples, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations for drinking water and recreational water supplies. This is critical to public health and safety.

Research and Academia:
Brilliant Green Agar plays a crucial role in academic and research settings, where it is used to study the genetic makeup, antimicrobial resistance, and pathogenicity of Salmonella. It is also employed in environmental surveillance of enteric pathogens and in the development of new diagnostic methods.

Pharmaceutical Industry:
In the pharmaceutical industry, Brilliant Green Agar is used to test the sterility of raw materials, intermediate products, and finished goods. Ensuring the absence of pathogens such as Salmonella is essential for maintaining product safety and regulatory compliance in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
