Selenite Cystine Broth for Enrichment of Salmonella spp., 500 g, Acumedia 7283A

Features:

• Selenite Cystine Broth is used for selective enrichment of Salmonella species in laboratory setting and is not intended for use in diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans
• Growth and isolation of Salmonella in food and other samples can be suppressed from food-processing procedures including exposure to low and or high temperatures, drying, radiation, preservatives, and sanitizers
• Along with harsh processing procedures, Salmonella organisms may be competing with other bacteria in same sample
• Primary and secondary (selective) enrichment media are used to nurture any injured or stressed cells, along with inhibiting nuisance organisms
• Selenite Cystine Broth is based upon formula of Selenite Broth described by Leifson, with addition of cystine
• FDA, Bacteriological Analytical Manual incorporate Selenite Cystine Broth as pre-enrichment medium for detecting Salmonella in food materials
• Selenite Cystine Broth is recommended by AOAC, USP,
  and APHA as selective enrichment medium for Salmonella spp., while inhibiting growth of other Gram-negative bacilli
• Enzymatic Digest of Casein and Enzymatic Digest of Animal Tissue are used as nitrogen and vitamin sources in Selenite Cystine Broth
• Lactose is carbohydrate and Disodium Phosphate is buffer
• Sodium Selenite is selective agent against Gram-positive bacteria and most enteric Gram-negative bacilli
• L-Cystine is a reducing agent
• Appearance: white to off-white powder
