CM510339 |
Description |
FC Agar and Broth are formulated according to Geldreich et al., to detect the faecal coliforms in polluted water. The bile salts included in these media make these media selective for enterobacteria, and also selective for coliforms due to the high temperature of incubation: 44,5°C±0,5°C. Freshly prepared medium has a red-garnet colour. Faecal coliform colonies are greenish-blue, and the medium also turns to this colour. In case of other bacteria, when they grow, show pinkish colonies, and then the medium turns to fluorescent red. |
Application |
Liquid, selective and differential medium for coliform enumeration by membrane filter technique. |
