Ready-to-use 50mL MI Liquid Media Bottled used to detect presence of coliform bacteria. GVS culture growth media can save time and money by shortening prep time and minimizing possible contamination.

Description

  • MI Broth and Agar detects the presence of coliform bacteria by the production of b-galactosidase, which cleaves the substrate MUGal to produce 4-methylumbelliferone, which fluoresces on exposure to UV light. Non-coliforms do not produce this enzyme and therefore do not fluoresce on the medium. Escherichia coli is detected by the compound IBDG. The b-glucuronidase produced by Escherichia coli cleaves the substrate to produce a blue indigo color in the colonies. As Escherichia coli is also a total coliform, and also produces b-galactosidase, it will also fluoresce. The antibiotic cefsulodin is present to inhibit the growth of gram-positive bacteria and some non-coliform gram-negative bacteria that can cause false positive reactions.
