M-FC AGAR BASE (VEG.)

M-FC Veg Agar Base is prepared by using vegetable peptones in place of animal based peptones which makes the media free of BSE/TSE risks. These media are the modifications of M-FC Veg Agar Base which were designed by Geldreich, Clark, Huff and Bert and recommended by APHA for the detection and enumeration of faecal coliforms using membrane filter technique. Faecal coliforms are differentiated from coliforms from environmental sources by their ability to grow at 44.5 + 0.5?C. Faecal coliforms give blue coloured colonies.
