Lab M Launches New Coliform Medium for Milk
go back to news archives | Microbiology specialist Lab M is introducing a new medium for the enumeration of presumptive Escherichia coli in milk and milk products. |
The addition of MUG to the medium allows the positive discrimination of E.coli strains. As the majority of E. coli harbour the glucuronidase enzyme, they can use MUG as a substrate, releasing a fluorogenic compound. Tubes which fluoresce under UV are confirmed for E.coli by a positive indole reaction when Kovac's reagent is added to the tube. |
