Product Overview:
Violet Red Bile (Lactose) Agar (500g) is a selective medium for the isolation and differentiation of Enterobacteriaceae, especially coliforms in water, food, and other materials of sanitary importance, by ISO 725. The medium includes bile salts and crystal violet, which suppress the growth of Gram-positive organisms and support the development of Gram-negative organisms. The inclusion of lactose permits the distinction of coliforms by their lactose-fermenting ability, because red colonies are formed. The agar is commonly used in water quality tests, food safety tests, and environmental microbes tests.
Key Features:
- Selective and Differential: Inhibits Gram-positive organisms and encourages the growth of Gram-negative organisms, including coliforms. When lactose is added, differentiation by lactose fermentation can be made.
- Coliform Detection: Violet Red Bile (Lactose) Agar is recommended for the detection of coliforms in food, environmental, and water samples, enabling testing as soon as possible for safety and quality control applications.
- Quick and Reliable: Offers fast and reliable results and is ideal for the laboratory performing routine microbial control.
- Made by HIMEDIA – Labsupply, the most trusted name in microbiological media, so you get consistent, quality results with every batch.
Applications:
- Water Quality Testing: Violet Red Bile (Lactose) Agar is utilized to detect the presence of coliform bacteria in water samples, ensuring water is safe for drinking, recreational, and wastewater purposes.
- Food Safety Testing: Perfect for checking for coliform contamination in food and beverages, and provides a comprehensive analysis to keep you and your food safe.
- Environmental Microbiology: Used for ecological studies for detecting microbial contamination in the air, soil, and surface samples.
- Use in Microbiological Research: The most commonly used agar for bacteria from the intestines and other sources.
