Enterococcus Confirmatory Broth 500G

Enterococcus Confirmatory Broth is recommended for confirming the presence of Enterococci in water supplies and other sources. Enterococci are differentiated from other Streptococci by their ability to grow in 6.5% sodium chloride, at pH 9.6 and at 10°Cand 45°C. Production of acid and turbidity in an azide presumptive broth when incubated at 45°C is considered positive presumptive evidence for the presence of Enterococci which is confirmed by inoculating in /on Confirmatory Broth (M394).
