Brilliant Green Agar w/ Sulfapyridine - 500g

Brilliant Green Agar w/ Sulfapyridine is used for the selective enrichment of Salmonella spp. in a laboratory setting. Brilliant Green Agar w/ Sulfapyridine is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.
Brilliant Green Agar was first described by Kristensen et al and later modified by Kauffmann. The outstanding selectivity of this medium permits the use of moderately heavy inocula evenly distributed over the surface. The addition of sulfonamides into Brilliant Green Agar further inhibits Escherichia coli and Proteus spp. Osborne and Stokes used 0.1% Sodium Sulfapyridine to enhance the recovery of Salmonella from whole egg and egg yolk.
