BRILLIANT GREEN BILE BROTH 2% (BRILLIANT GREEN LACTOSE BILE BROTH 2%) (VEG.)

Brilliant Green Veg Broth 2% is specially developed using Veg peptone to avoid BSE/TSE risks associated with animal origin peptone. This medium is the modification of Brilliant Green Bile Broth 2% which is used for presumptive identification and confirmation of coliform bacteria.
Production of gas from lactose fermentation detected by incorporating inverted Durham?s tube, indicates a positive evidence of faecal coliforms since non faecal coliforms growing in this medium do not produce gas. During examination of water samples, growth from presumptive positive tubes showing gas in Lactose Veg Broth or Lauryl Tryptose Veg Broth is inoculated in Brilliant Green Veg Broth 2% wherein gas formation within 48 ? 2 hours confirms the presumptive test.
