Product Name |
Acetamide Nutritive Broth |
Catalogue No. |
CM509986 |
Description |
This nutrient solution has acetamide as the unique carbon and nitrogen source, and it allows the growth of only those microorganisms that are able to use acetamide. In water and in almost all the food materials, these microorganisms are the non fermenting gramnegatives, thus Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the only one that can liberate ammonia by deaminating acetamide. Some authors suggest the use of this nutrient solution as a previous enrichment medium before the isolation medium, especially if you are studing very polluted samples with companion flora |
Application |
Liquid medium for the enrichment and confirmative test of presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in water.acc. EN 12780:2002 standard |
