Application

m-Endo Broth is used for the estimation of coliforms in water samples using membrane filter technique.

Preparation Note

Suspend 61.5 g in 1 litre distilled water. Heat to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 121°C for 5 minutes. The medium should be used on the same day of its rehydration.
Caution: Basic fuchsin is a potential carcinogen and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of the powdered dye and contamination of the skin.
