Brilliant E. coli Agar (500g) Highlights

• Microbiological Culture Medium: E. coli Agar is a selective and differential culture medium used for the isolation and differentiation of E. coli and other coliform bacteria from clinical and environmental samples. It contains specific ingredients that inhibit the growth of most Gram-positive bacteria while allowing Gram-negative
• Selective and Differential Properties: This medium is designed to differentiate between lactose fermenting and non-lactose fermenting bacteria. E. coli typically ferments lactose, producing characteristic pink to red colonies, while other bacteria may appear colorless or differently colored.
• Laboratory Use: Primarily used in microbiology laboratories for routine testing of water, food, and clinical specimens. It aids in identifying potential contamination and assessing microbial quality.
• Storage and Handling: Prepared media should be stored at refrigerated temperatures (2-8°C) and protected from light. Unused dehydrated media should be kept in a cool, dry place to maintain its efficacy.
• Preparation Guidelines: Dehydrated E. coli Agar requires reconstitution with distilled or deionized water and sterilization, typically by autoclaving, before use. Follow manufacturer's instructions for optimal results.
