Other Notes
- The plates are clear and pale pink.
- If the culture medium is somewhat red after it has solidified, the red coloration can be removed by adding a few drops (max. 1 mL/liter) of a freshly prepared 10 % sodium sulfite solution and then boiling.
- On exposure to oxygen, the plated culture medium gradually becomes red due to the oxidation of sulfite and can thus no longer be used. It can only be kept for a few days even if it is stored in the dark and at refrigerator temperature.

The designations basic, plus, or prime are added to indicate the quality control level, from basic quality control to standard QC plus to prime for full regulatory compliance.
