A general purpose nutritious broth capable of growing a wide range of bacteria and fungi.
The medium is widely used for blood cultures although the high carbohydrate level may cause rapid growth and subsequent death of acid-producing organisms
LABM
A basal media that can be supplemented with carbohydrates and indicators for fermentation studies.
A substrate for the testing of an organism's ability to produce indole from tryptophan.
The indole test is frequently used in the classification of coliform organisms. This is product is preferable to LAB104 Peptone Water because it has a higher content of tryptophan.
A versatile, nutritionally rich, buffered glucose broth which may be used for blood culture media, supplement for animal cell culture and with the addition of sodium azide as a selective medium for streptococci in dairy products.
This is a modification of Christensen´s urea base for the detection of rapid urease production by Proteus spp.
Other enterobacteria will split the urea, but this will be delayed. This delay is achieved by the incorporation of glucose and the introduction of a buffering system into the medium. The indicator for ammonia production is phenol red.
