Himedia HiCrome Selective Salmonella Agar Base

HiCrome™ Selective Salmonella Agar Base

Details

It uses chromogenic mixture for identification and differentiation of Salmonella species. Sodium cholate ,Sodium taurocholate and Sodium deoxycholate in the medium helps to restrict the growth of other organisms. Besides the selective supplement added to the medium inhibits competing microorganisms. This medium is specially employed for food samples where the sample is initially enriched in Salmonella Selective Enrichment Broth (M1843) and then isolated on HiCrome Selective Salmonella Agar Base. Salmonella species give purple coloured colonies due to the enzyme specificity.
