  • A selective medium for the enrichment of Enterobacteriaceae and the detection of Escherichia coli in pharmaceutical products. The inclusion of Bromocresol Purple indicator makes the colour change caused by acid production from the fermentation of lactose easy to read with gas formation. The presence of Ox bile helps to suppress the growth of Gram positive and non-enteric bacterial species. This formulation complies with the Harmonized USP/EP/JP.
  • This is a selective medium for the isolation of yeasts and fungi and is particularly suitable for use in sterility testing. The low pH (5.6) of the medium is inhibitory to most bacteria and many diagnostic features such as spores and pigmentation are well developed on this medium. The formulation of this medium conforms to the requirements of the Harmonized USP/EP/JP.
  • This is a general-purpose complex medium for the cultivation and isolation of aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. The base medium, Tryptone Soya Agar (Soybean-Casein Digest agar), conforms to the Harmonized United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP). The medium can be incubated under aerobic or anaerobic conditions after use for sterility testing, air sampling and other areas of bacteriological investigation.
