Product Description:

Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) or Edel-Kampelmacher Medium is a selective culture medium designed for the isolation and differentiation of Salmonella species. This modified formulation of Brilliant Green Agar provides excellent selective properties, coupled with an enhanced ability to isolate Salmonella from other organisms. The medium contains a brilliant green dye, which inhibits most non-pathogenic organisms, allowing for the growth of Salmonella. The modified formula also facilitates the easy recognition of colonies, thanks to their characteristic morphology and color. As a result, Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) is an essential tool for food safety and clinical microbiological diagnostic testing.

Key Features:

– Selective for Salmonella Species: Specifically designed for the isolation of Salmonella species, including Salmonella enterica.
– Unique Colony Morphology: Salmonella colonies appear as small, green colonies on a red (or pink) background, enabling clear identification.
– Modified Formula Increases Salmonella Selectivity: This revision increases the medium’s selectivity for Salmonella, enhancing the reliability of pathogen isolation.
– Ideal for Food Safety Testing: Perfect for use in food safety labs to test food and beverages for the presence of Salmonella.
– 500g Pack Size: This pack size is perfect for medium to large-sized laboratories that perform regular microbiological work.
– Professional Quality: Manufactured to provide consistent results, ensuring the reliability of every test.

Principle of Brilliant Green Agar (Modified):

The modified Brilliant Green Agar contains brilliant green dye, which inhibits the growth of most Gram-positive and some Gram-negative organisms. This selective inhibition allows only Salmonella species, particularly Salmonella enterica, to grow on the medium. The modification enhances the selectivity, making the medium even more effective at isolating Salmonella. As with the original formula, the colonies of Salmonella species typically appear green or blue-green due to the reduction of brilliant green dye.

This medium is essential for isolating Salmonella from clinical, food, water, and environmental samples. The rapid detection of Salmonella is vital in ensuring hygiene in food safety and accurate medical diagnostics.

Applications of Brilliant Green Agar (Modified):

Healthcare and Clinical Laboratories:
Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) is commonly used in clinical laboratories for isolating Salmonella from stool samples of patients with gastroenteritis. Early detection is crucial in diagnosing diseases like typhoid and paratyphoid fever, enabling prompt treatment to avoid severe complications.

Food Safety Testing:
The food industry uses this enriched medium to detect Salmonella in food products. Salmonella contamination in food, especially in meat, poultry, dairy, and produce, can lead to foodborne illness outbreaks. Food safety laboratories rely on this medium to ensure food products are safe for consumers and comply with health regulations.

Water Testing:
Environmental and water testing laboratories use Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) to detect Salmonella contamination in water samples. This is a critical measure in ensuring the safety of drinking water and recreational water, in compliance with local health standards.

Research and Academia:
The academic and research communities use this medium to study Salmonella pathogenicity and antimicrobial resistance. It is also used in environmental pathogen monitoring and in detecting emerging enteric pathogens.

Pharmaceutical Industry:
In the pharmaceutical sector, Brilliant Green Agar (Modified) is used to test the sterility of raw materials, intermediates, and finished products. Preventing Salmonella contamination is essential to maintaining product safety in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
