Description

Description générale

GranuCult^® plus Tetrathionate broth (base) is a selective enrichment medium for Salmonella. Tetrathionate and excess thiosulfate suppress coliform microorganisms and other accompanying bacteria, whereas all tetrathionate-reducing bacteria (e.g., Salmonella and Proteus) can multiply in this medium. Calcium carbonate neutralizes the acidic tetrathionate decomposition products. Bile salts inhibit all microorganisms which do not normally live in the intestine. The United States Pharmacopeia recommends the addition of brilliant green to suppress the Gram-positive microbial flora. The resulting culture medium has a strong inhibitory effect and is therefore, sometimes better to omit the brilliant green to obtain satisfactory yields of salmonellae. Proteus can be suppressed by adding 0.04 g novobiocin/liter.

Application

GranuCult^® plus Tetrathionate broth (base) is suitable for the selective enrichment of salmonellae from various materials.
