Pike Streptococcal HiVegâ„¢ Broth Base 500G

Pike Streptococcal HiVegâ„¢ Broth Base is recommended for selective enrichment and cultivation of Streptococci from throat swabs and other clinical specimens. Addition of 5% sterile defibrinated rabbit blood enriches the media. Crystal violet acts as inhibitor for gram-positive bacteria and sodium azide inhibits gram-negative rods and non-haemolytic Streptococci. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk.
