Key Features

MOQ 10 SETS
Selective Medium: The combination of eosin Y and methylene blue dyes inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria while allowing the growth of Gram-negative organisms, particularly coliforms.
Differential Properties: Lactose fermenters produce colored colonies, whereas non-fermenters form colorless colonies. E. coli typically forms a dark, metallic green sheen due to vigorous lactose fermentation.
Wide Application: Used for the detection and enumeration of coliforms in water, food, and clinical samples.
Quick Identification: EMB agar aids in the rapid differentiation of coliforms and fecal coliforms, essential for microbiological quality control.
Suitable for Isolation and Enumeration: Especially useful in detecting E. coli and Enterobacter aerogenes, which are commonly found in environmental and clinical specimens.
